 I get the exception mentioned in the summary when starting Tor Browser 4
 (which does not have the HTTPS-Everyhwere toolbar button on the toolbar
 anymore). The offending line in question is:
 {{{
     counterItem.setAttribute('checked', showCounter ? 'true' : 'false');
 }}}
 Should be a matter of a try-catch that is missing here I guess as HTTPS-
 Everywhere is still working as expected.
