Sorry nick, didn't know who else to give this too and our "vendibles"
pages are not easy to find.
Anyway, we have waaay too many users showing up in #tor and using a dumb
browser, and studies indicate that 20% of our users use Torbutton (see bug
#1801).
Many of them test their browsers on check.torproject.org. We should
provide a link to the TorButton and Tor Warning pages if
check.torproject.org does not detect a Torbutton user agent.
I can provide tests we can use to detect this generally while Tor is
enabled.
