Comment(by brade):

 We iterated on this a little at the recent Tor dev meeting.  Mark and I
 decided to primarily patch Torbutton to provide an about:tor page and to
 patch TBB to make that the default home page.  Screenshots that show the
 four page variations are available here:

   http://trial.pearlcrescent.com/tor/aboutTor/

 If Torbutton detects that a TBB update is available, all open about:tor
 pages are dynamically updated to show the "Your browser is out of date"
 message.

 Known issues:
 1) Tor status (which is based on socks configuration) is not updated
 dynamically.
 2) When a TBB update is needed and the browser window is very narrow or
 very wide, the about:tor layout is not ideal.

 I will post the patches in a moment.
