One possible way to implement ‘buried deep down’ would be with a command-line option (--enable-tor) that requires input on the console to continue launching the browser. Something like the following:
$ iceweasel --enable-tor
The option --enable-tor will route _all_ traffic generated by Iceweasel through
possibly-malicious TOR exit nodes. Please read http://example.com/TOR for more
information on how TOR works and then type "Enable TOR" to continue launching
Iceweasel with TOR enabled.
Awaiting Input: <user types Enable TOR + Enter>
<Iceweasel starts>
Sure, people could build scripts with expect or so, but I would assume this to deter most unknowing users from enabling TOR accidentally (idea stolen from apt-get’s ‘Yes, do as I say!’).
