Thankyou. The Firefox people have merely removed their dependance upon
an unreliable resource, cross OS file locking. A prudent design choice.
If they come up with an elegant distributed lock protocol it would be
worth propagating universally in the light of the success of Firefox and
its consequent broad distribution. I see that it has already grabbed
perhaps 30% of browser users.
I agree as long as they don't replace it with something that is less robust.
IMHO something that's broken as simply as running two instances doesn't seem
robust or elegant. I hope I'm wrong about it though
