Comment(by phobos):

 If someone wants to create a firefox persona for tor, great.  I encourage
 them to put it in the firefox persona site and convince others to use it.

 This topic of a custom branded firefox in tbb comes up every so often.
 When mentioning it to people that really need tbb in hostile places, they
 look at me in horror.  The forced homepage of check.tpo is bad enough,
 making firefox scream, "I AM USING TOR PLEASE LOOK AT ME CLOSELY" isn't
 conducive to keeping them out of trouble.

 Perhaps we have a firefox persona that's shipped with tbb, but disabled by
 default.  If users are confused, they can enable it when they feel safe.
