Comment (by mikeperry):

 One more annoying property: this causes a terminal window to open by
 default, and if the user closes that terminal, the browser dies.

 I've noticed that start-tor-browser still has a --debug option.. Perhaps
 that option should be what governs the output+terminal being
 present+required, otherwise it gets sent to /dev/null? Right now it seems
 that --debug does nothing.
