Comment (by mcs):

 We placed the TODO comment in the code because we encountered some hangs
 during development of Tor Launcher (if I remember correctly, the hang
 occurred the first time Tor Launcher issued a control port command which
 is long before the progress dialog finishes).  We do not know the root
 cause and we do not know how to reproduce the problem.

 If you make sure that no tor.exe of firefox.exe processes are running
 before you open "Start Tor Browser.exe", how often does this hang occur?

 To help us debug the problem, please do the following:
 1) Start TBB (you'll have to get past the hang)
 2) Open about:config
 3) Change extensions.torlauncher.loglevel to 0
 4) Change extensions.torlauncher.logmethod to 0
 5) Exit the Tor Browser
 6) From a cmd prompt, cd to the Browser subdirectory within TBB and start
 the browser by using the command:   firefox -console

 If you can reproduce the hang with the above debugging enabled, please
 send us the log output from the Console window.
