So can anyone bring up any specific issues that may be caused by the
change?
We are collecting these issues as child tickets of this bug:
https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/2880
As an aside, we also are collecting a similar set of issues for the
removal of an HTTP proxy entirely from the tor distribution:

Have no particular problem w/ doing away w/ Torbutton - per se. Two
thoughts.
Avg & users will have to be educated in an * easily understandable *
way why they must install a 2nd instance of Firefox (browser bundle).
Have noticed the current & past Tor browser bundles are a Firefox ver or
2 behind the most current release from Mozilla. How does / will that
affect safety of Tor browser bundle users, in case of serious security
updates in latest FX vers, which haven't been incorporated into latest Tor?
