 In Tails 1.2.1 (the current latest), when I run Tor Browser for the first
 time the menu bar is hidden.

 Its visibility toggles irritatingly with the alt key. So, I always set it
 to remain visible by right-clicking in the empty space in the tab bar to
 the right of the current tab and checking the "Menu Bar" option in the
 contextual menu.

 When I quit and relaunch Tor Browser, this setting remains, even though
 all other browser state I have discerned is reset.

 I am filing this bug so that someone more knowledgeable can consider and
 investigate the possibility that this presumably-harmless state persisting
 is not an indicator of some larger state leaking problem in Tor Browser.
