I hav a question on this case. Why does this "Already running" dialog
even exist?

In my opinion Thunderbird should all time automatic open the existing 
application. I do not know any other application with this nonsense Dialogs. 
What user would be interested in such a detail if the app already run or not. 
In all cases a normal user inter act with thunderbird I personally know no 
situation where this error shows a good information.
 *  If the Thunderbird app already run do something in thunderbird.
 *  If thunderbird do not run start it and than do something in tunderbird.
 *  If there is a case that Thunderbird do not react on a call say something 
like: 
  "Thunderbird do not answer. Should I kill it and start a new one. If you wish 
check yourself leaf this dialog open. It will disappear the moment thunderbird 
do answer."
