Comment(by mikeperry):

 The above of course being contingent on how hard it is for erin to add a
 whole additional column of things she is building vs supporting developer-
 friendly modes of TBB. If it is just a matter of copying some files around
 after the build process to produce TBB-Firefox as a separate package while
 also producing the TBB package, then maybe this does make sense.

 But otherwise, I think we should try to figure out how to accommodate our
 hard-core users with less effort from us, and just slightly more tweaks
 from them.

 Right now, I think our software wreaks of us catering to experts expecting
 them to understand how to tweak things and still keep them secure, rather
 than focusing on making stuff work for normal people right out of the box
 with a single click...
