commit 2c4dd9e4bec9a24e674fdcdbf0fba6be3dab3c03 Author: David Fifield david@bamsoftware.com Date: Sun Mar 23 19:46:15 2014 -0700

Block without returning in profile-after-change handler.

As suggested in https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/11183#comment:11, I'm going to try running the HTTP helper in a second browser instance. The extension blocks in order that the browser won't show a browser window.

There's probably a better way to block the function without returning, but for now I'm just raising a modal dialog. --- firefox/components/main.js | 22 +++++++++++++++++----- 1 file changed, 17 insertions(+), 5 deletions(-)
