New issue 9233 by [email protected]: Need new, alternative first-run  
bubble
http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=9233

Currently, Chrome has a "bubble" that appears on first run, and points to
the omnibox with instructions on how to search, and a method for changing
the default (or imported) search provider.

This bubble works fine now, but doesn't work in some distribution
circumstances.  For instance,
* The bubble may cover a partner's landing page
* The search may be preset to Google (and shouldn't be changed)
* Chrome may launch behind a partner's application, which means the bubble
disappears as soon as Chrome gains focus

These issues reflect the need for an improved, streamlined bubble that has
less text and slightly different behavior than it does now.

Specifically:

1.  The new bubble should have much less text, here:
"New!  You can search right from the address bar:"
"Try it out - type <b>orchids</b> and press enter."

2.  The bubble should have a close "[X]" so users can manually close it if
they so choose.

3.  The bubble should only vanish if the user closes via the "[X]" or the
user types something in the omnibox.

4.  The bubble should be driven by a configuration option in the
master_preferences file, which in turn is driven by the installerdata
passed by Omaha; only those Chrome installations that have a "mini_bubble"
: true configuration option should show this alternative bubble on startup.

See the mock for more information.
