 According to https://tor.stackexchange.com/questions/84/how-do-i-create-a
 -launcher-script-that-opens-an-url-in-torbrowser-from-the-bu there's been
 a script running around to allow us to open torbrowser tabs from the
 commandline...but that was over 5 years ago now, with no sign of whether
 or not there's a flaw in that approach.

 Currently attempts to run

 torbrowser-launcher URL

 result in

 "Tor Browser is already running, but is not responding. To open a new
 window, you must first close the existing Tor Browser process, or restart
 your system."

 What should happen is the URL should open in a new tab.  This allows for
 scripted opening of multiple tabs.

 (I looked for an existing ticket for this but couldn't find one)
