 {{{
 I'd like to have an option for not closing the browser window upon
 changing identity.
 There is already a preference "extensions.torbutton.close_newnym" for this
 in about:config, but it doesn't work because a "return" statement is
 missing after the preference test in chrome/content/torbutton.js:


 function torbutton_close_on_toggle(mode, newnym):
 [â]
 if (newnym) {
 if (!close_newnym) {
 torbutton_log(3, "Not closing tabs");
 }
 } else if((mode && !close_nontor) || (!mode && !close_tor)) {
 torbutton_log(3, "Not closing tabs");
 return;
 }
 [â]
 }
 }}}
