How would part b work? What IPC might we use between Vidalia and Firefox?
I think we disable the normal Firefox remoting by using -no-remote..
We have to be extra careful with this piece. Failure to do this
notification correctly could accidentally (and silently) break Torbutton's
XHMLHTTPRequest to get the list of TBB versions for update notification
(#3337).
