> Hrmm. I think this is enough of a reason to warrant doing the first-run
dialog for upgrade users too.. Or at least for upgrade users with this
weird option combo. They made a mistake somewhere in their config due to
confusing UI and they think they are getting a security property they
really aren't. This is bad. We should fix that situation.
So may be leaving the users with a new Tor that suddenly just doesn't
work, because they checked the usebridges box but didn't added any, is a
good way of saying "update your Vidalia too".
I guess if we consider this a security issue, we can ignore backward
compatibility.
