This is the 1.1.8 alpha release of the Torbutton Firefox extension. It features significant usability and compatibility enhancements. However, it is still alpha software, so it may have some rough edges. If you notice issues or have usability complaints, now is the time to speak up while things are still easy to change. Please be specific. I have made a good effort to anticipate common usability complaints for this release from the feedback I have so far received, but I am not omniscient. Eventually, this Torbutton will be backported to the stable Tor release, so if you do not speak up soon, you will be perpetually suffering in silence and will be stuck uninstalling the extension every time you upgrade Tor (and leaving yourself vulnerable to numerous anonymity-compromising vulnerabilities in the process). See http://torbutton.torproject.org/dev for more information.
