 Replying to [comment:9 mikeperry]:
 > Ok. We don't want Tor Launcher's password saved in the torrc. But we
 also want it to be used in addition to any HashedControlPasswords in the
 torrc.

 That's exactly the behavior I thought Tor had.

 > Is +_HashedControlSessionPassword what we want then?

 I'm currently thinking this is a Tor regression in 0.2.5.x, and Tor
 Launcher shouldn't have to workaround it (assuming we can identify and fix
 it).
