#10491: TorBrowser integration in a desktop enviroment

------------------------------+---------------------------
I use TBB 3.5 as my default browser. The browsing experience over Tor
network is for me almost the same as with normal FF. What I am missing as
a user is the integration into my desktop environment.
If have set TBB in my desktop as the default browser application. When I
read a email with a link in it (or when I click in any other application
on a link), I want that the URL opens with TBB by default. Because the TBB
start script does not pass parameters to the FF instance at the moment,
clicking on a link in an email just opens a blank TBB.
There is a bug #10472 filed that provides a patch for passing parameters
to TBB. But it only works if no TBB instance is running. If I have a TBB
already open I get the message:
"Firefox is already running, but is not responding. To open a new window,
you must first close the existing Firefox process, or restart your
system."
