 > I notice this with AFAICT 100% reliability on non en-US builds (on
 windows). I currently have 31 non en-US alphas here (all set to spoof
 english: but I doubt that makes a difference). It does not happen on en-US
 builds. So there's definitely something going on with languages.

 > FYI: setting `browser.startup.blankWindow` = `false` (default true)
 fixes this: but I don't know if that will introduce more problems vs
 fixing something cosmetic. +1 for Arthur's 3rd proposal
