 The `sandboxed-tor-browser` UI/UX is something that was done by someone
 that is not a UI/UX person, and it shows.  There is tons of room for
 improvement, and this is the catch-all for tracking such things.

 Off the top of my head:

  * Allow the ability to localize it. (https://github.com/nicksnyder/go-
 i18n looks promising).
  * Use a progress bar instead of a spinner for the progressDialog.
  * Add an `About` dialog somewhere so that it's easy to query version
 information, without resorting to the command line (`--version`).
  * Improve the appearance of the error dialog, provide access to the log
 when convenient (rather than the console, or a log file).
