Comment (by mcs):

 Replying to [comment:25 mcs]:
 > If you make the "See what's new in Tor Browser" button that is displayed
 on about:tor go directly to the web page then we would not need any new
 strings.  I am not sure how difficult that would be to implement though.

 Maybe it is as simple as doing something like this inside `handleClick()`
 (in Onboarding.jsm):
 {{{
 ...
 case "onboarding-overlay-button":
 ...
 if (this._tourType === "update")
   this.sendMessageToChrome("tor-open-tab", {url: ...});
 } else {
   this.showOverlay();
   this.gotoPage(this._firstUncompleteTour.id);
 }
 }}}

 Untested of course ;)
