Focused Testing

Let's try to go through all of the tests in the major updates reference page and test around different kinds of profiles, containing multiple extensions and themes, compatible and incompatible with 2.0x. Keep an eye out for data loss problems, such as bookmarks, and any other preferences that should be preserved after an update.
