New description:

 In #3944, we went with a super-hacky way of updating omni.ja and the
 language packs to set our homepage and omnibox values.

 It turns out you can do this same stuff from a branding extension. Tails
 has one here: http://git.immerda.ch/?p=amnesia.git;a=tree;f=config
 /chroot_local-
 includes/etc/iceweasel/profile/extensions/branding at amnesia.boum.org;h=0cf86e91aff4be8c98841e250d3eb9c943560257;hb=HEAD

 We should switch to this as some point and remove all the crazy sed and
 re-zipping cruft from our TBB makefiles.
