 When using TBB (tor-browser-gnu-linux-x86_64-1.0.17-dev-en-US.tar.gz) on
 Ubuntu Maverick, I have data stored in tor-browser_en-US, rather than in
 tor-browser_en-US/Data/ as expected.

 In tor-browser_en-US, I see '.pulse-cookie' and '.mozilla' when I expect
 to see nothing in the top level directory.

 This is odd and the contents of the files are also odd.

 As an example, I see 'tor-browser_en-US/.mozilla/extensions/{ec8030f7
 -c20a-464f-9b0e-13a3a9e97384}/https-everywhere at eff.org/svn-commit.tmp' -
 why is that in there?

 I'd like to see all data inside of Data/ to ensure that any writes that
 happens out of that directory are caught as the bugs they appear to be.
