Comment (by mcs):

 Is the issue that if three bridges are configured without a corresponding
 ClientTransportPlugin, then three bootstrap errors will be generated?  For
 TBB, with Tor Launcher, I think this will be OK because Tor Launcher
 suppresses repeated errors (that is, it does not display an error alert to
 the user) if the TAG and REASON match the the last bootstrap error that
 was reported.  So the user should only see one error message if this case.
