 Replying to [comment:24 acat]:
 > Thanks for the review: here is the revised branch:
 https://github.com/acatarineu/tor-browser/commits/31918+1
 (4f94bc827bb8045b3c6504e8c65c5629d76c2313).
 >
 > I did what you suggested, and also squashed `Bug 29859: Disable HLS
 support for now`, with mozconfs, as I thought it might belong there.
 >
 > > 5) Squash the old.configure changes into TB3: Tor Browser's official
 .mozconfigs and just start using --enable-tor-browser-data-outside-app-dir
 in from that commit on? (Essentially similar to my TOR_BROWSER_VERSION
 idea from above)
 > Should we do this also with the other two flags that we define?
 (--disable-tor-launcher, --disable-tor-browser-update). I mean, define
 them in the mozconfig commit, and use them later.

 I think so, yes.

 > I'll use the `31918+1` branch for next #33533 rebase, as essentially the
 `33533+4..31918+1` did not change.

 Yeah, sounds good. Thanks!
