Comment:

 I am not exactly sure about the rationale for the difference between Tor
 Launcher and Torbutton (maybe mcs/brade know that), but I could imagine
 one reason would be that Tor Launcher is not only a Tor Browser thing
 while Torbutton is.

 Arthur: Could you elaborate on the benefit of shipping all locales to all
 users right now even though at the moment there are no multi-locale Tor
 Browser versions available? I understand why we would want that in case
 those were about to ship but it does not seem to be the case that this is
 happening (any time soon).

 The big downside is a larger bundle for everyone, longer download times,
 etc. without any current benefit.
