For those using TB as a stand in for Mulberry, as I am, you may have spent some effort customizing TB to provide a user experience and feature set more consistent with what you knew and loved about Mulberry using a variety of plugins, making it a bit less sucky. If so, you may (as I did) have found the 68.x upgrade broke many of those helpful customizations without adding any useful features that might justify the loss.

I found the process of undoing the damage of the 68.x upgrade annoying enough to document the process:

I miss mulberry more than any other abandonware and am heartened that there is still a community around this unusually excellent piece of code.
