The mozregistry.dat file currently lives in a system directory. On windows
machines it's in the system's windows directory. Attempting to implement
something like run from CD wouldn't work unless we have write access to that
directory. It would be better to be able to have the registry live with the app
in this case.

Bing able to start from CD can help tremendously in the custom distribution
market (ISPs, electronic books etc.).
This one is fixed. mozregistry now lives under HOME directory (HOME drive + HOME
path).

MOZILLA_FIVE_HOME or the user's home dir ("Documents", I think)? The latter
would allow a user to create new profiles.
Documents is the home on mac..
Also, we have been receiving suggestions about the location for new registry.
For full discussion, please follow....
