Comment(by mikeperry):

 Two reasons not to: 1. It would allow you to easily differentiate people
 who have not noticed the upgrade notice yet and are still vulnerable to
 the latest Firefox exploit. 2. It would allow you to differentiate TBB-
 stable from TBB-alpha.

 #2 may not be a strong reason, though.. There will be likely be ways to
 fingerprint these two groups apart as we test out new features in alpha
 :/.

 If we had a working autoupdater, I could be more easily convinced tracking
 the FF version closely was a good idea.
