 To whom it may concern,

 I find it cumbersome and annoying to be forced to manually update each new
 TBB release with all my bookmarks, settings (ex., about:config) and add-
 ons (ex., AdBlock Plus, RefControl, etc.)

 Is it possible to make new versions of TBB search for older versions on
 the same system, and if found migrate all settings, bookmarks and add-ons
 from the previous TBB to the new TBB?

 Such a feature would be god send, considering how often new TBB versions
 are released as of late! (I sure wish Mozilla would stop fracking around
 Firefox, i.e., released v.5, then a week later v.6, then another important
 security update a week later to v.6...)
