Comment(by h8a14i20QH):
I'd like to add that the version number displayed should be that of the
bundle as a whole, instead of the current version of Firefox. So, for the
current version: "2.2.35-10", followed by platform and architecture where
appropriate, instead of "12". At the moment a "Get Info…" in OS X on the
bundle as a whole reveals the version as "1.0", which is terribly
uninformative. "About…" for Vidalia reveals the version as 2.2.35, so the
architecture (in my case, 64-bit Intel) and "-10" are missing.
So, as it stands, it doesn't appear to be possible for a user to query the
current version of their TorBrowserBundle. Seeing as TorBrowser is
probably the aspect that most users are going to interact with most, it
makes sense to make the current version of the bundle available in its
"About" window.
