The don't-close-me window text now says: "Please don't close me
Please don't close this page Please don't close this browser window until you have finished browsing Freenet. To maximise security and performance, we have created a custom profile for Firefox for browsing Freenet. But because of a problem in Firefox, if you close this window before you close the Freenet window (with the black theme, it should load in a few seconds), you may not be able to get back into Firefox. If this happens please shutdown the Freenet window and if necessary reboot. We will try to find a better solution for version 0.8. Thank you for using Freenet." Is this reasonable?
