Comment(by mikeperry):

 I actually tried that first and I didn't like it. It was hard to tell
 where the popup was actually coming from in that case. I think making them
 click on the green onion to try to turn it off is the better route.

 My assumption was that people who have Torbutton are already used to
 toggling it. I suppose there could be people who installed it, never
 toggled it, and have been assuming they've been using tor the entire time?
 That's probably worse.
