Situation: #5476

Browse is a web-browsing activity that is currently implemented on top of Mozilla's gecko and nss libraries. Unfortunately, these libraries create files in a profile directory with very restrictive permissions. This means that Browse may work beautifully the first time it is run and may fail miserably on the second when it finds itself unable to manipulate shared resources like its webcache, certificate database, and so on.
