Sorry, doesn't work properly.

1. Doesn't maintain mozilla prefbar display
[http://prefbar.mozdev.org/]
2. Doesn't respect startup options such as '-no-remote -mail -browser'
3. Bookmarks are missing from existing profile.
4. Passwords are missing from existing profile.
etc., etc.

Only tested on 32bit & have not had time to test further or test on 64bit.

What was that quote from John Vivirito? "it is not ready and needs a lot
of love to get it ready."

BTW: loading up the standard SeaMonkey from mozilla, or reinstalling Joe
Lesko's 2.0.4 PPA version
(https://launchpad.net/~seamonkey2/+archive/seamonkey2) and using the
same ~/.mozilla profile restores all of 1-4.
