Comment(by proper):

 After talking with Mike on IRC...

 The patches won't get accepted, since they are platform specific hacks.

 There are many similar related tickets (6, 7, 8 or so) about the startup
 process, local vs globally installed Tor, TBB vs. Tor IM Bundle vs.
 TorBirdy, closing Tor Browser while leaving Tor running, restarting Tor
 Browser without having to restart Tor/Vidalia etc.

 The real plan is to wait for Jacob's grand vision for implementing this
 cleanly for all platforms and use cases.
