Comment(by rransom):

 Replying to [comment:10 mikeperry]:
 > For Tor Browser Bundle, doing a New Identity Button is actually much
 easier, because Vidalia now launches both Tor and Firefox. It passes a
 control port password to Tor via the command line. It can pass this same
 password to Torbutton via an environment variable.

 The firefox-remote IPC mechanism would most likely be a safer way to send
 the password to Firefox.
