Comment (by mcs):

 Replying to [comment:51 cypherpunks]:
 > No. We want either of these things. Because it's "the right thing" (part
 of sandboxing). But `CommonAppData` should point to e.g. `C:\Tor
 Browser\Browser\TorBrowser\Data\Browser\Mozilla` instead of
 `C:\ProgramData\Mozilla`.

 Maybe, but we do not have time to patch or test such a scheme right now. I
 think we are better off without the complexity that this adds for
 developers and users of Tor Browser.
