Comment(by erinn):

 Back in the days of https-everywhere's grand debut into the TBBs, the dev
 channel had a lot more coverage and, although it was the dev channel, was
 pretty stable and generally seemed like a better idea, privacy-wise. Do
 you think this is not the case anymore? I should note that even back then
 I was putting the dev https-everywhere into the Windows stable bundles.
 What they're actually going to freak out about is the automatic update and
 consequent nag screen. But I don't know enough about https-everywhere
 development to know if it is about to go all Wild Wild West. I'm very
 reluctant to downgrade the stable bundles to a version without features
 that the users have become accustomed to.
