 ControlPort. The part that is still missing is setting the env vars for
 TorButton, I need to work that out with Erinn, since everything TBB-ish
 will live in a plugin apart from Vidalia (see user/chiiph/vidalia-
 plugins.git repo for a first version of the TBB plugin).

 0.2.x launches firefox/polipo/pidgin and a bit of logic around that.
 How close is TBB 2.2.x-stable? I'd like to have 0.2.x kind of feature
 freezed, and do all this kind of development with 0.3.x, but I guess it
 depends on the timing.
