No it's not. I vaguely like the idea of my bookmarks being tracked by git,
but for just about everything else it doesn't make sense.
Much-improved script attached, converted to use rsync instead. It should
suffice to mv .mozilla .mozilla-master before trying it.
It still leaves sleep processes laying around after Firefox exits. Any ideas
why?
Okay, now I'm /actually/ stepping away from this; there are more important
things to do! :)
