 I've found it annoying that if the browser crashes or I close it
 automatically, the Vidalia control panel and the tor processes will close
 as well. Also, I sometimes just want to run Tor without the browser (Just
 as a relay), and I can't run it without having to keep the browser open.

 So maybe there could be an option to not close everything if the browser
 is closed?
