 New Identity in browser bundle is only about
 [https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/9521 memleak],
 [https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/9531 hang],
 [https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/11783 alert] and crash.
 If it was standalone browser then no problem, sad but at least
 recoverable. Crashing browser in bundle destroys everything, and anonymity
 too. It's just danger to press New Identity, never knows to what new bug
 this new identity leads.
