Comment (by lunar):

 I believe the Tor Project should aim at producing reliable software in
 which we can trust. Tor should never “unexpectedly exits” unless on flacky
 hardware or if the user kills the process manually. There is a bug and
 what we are missing now is a way to understand it and fix it.

 As a power user, a “Try again” button is likely to make me loose all
 confidence in the software at hand: bugs, I can understand, but
 considering them normal behavior, less.
