Comment:

 Turns out this is due to Firefox nsIContentPolicy changes. I've branched
 Torbutton for 1.5 and removed the content policy that attempts to prevent
 cross-tor-state loads after toggle in origin/master.

 This means that toggle is now totally unsafe for reals. I'll probably be
 renaming the extension to something like "Tor Support" once we get closer
 to a FF17-ESR TBB release.
