-------------------------+--------------------------
 The Tor application on OS X stores user data into its bundle
 (TorBrowser.app/Data/). This is bad. This causes various issues:

 - the Tor application can't be code sign which decreases the security. See
 Ticket #13251: CodeSign Tor for OS X

 - when installing a new version of Tor, all previous user data (bookmarks)
 are deleted.
