So for the past 2 days I've been using Minefield to try out Tab Candy, which is an excellent new feature. I downloaded Minefield with TC (Tab Candy) from the Mozilla FTP linked from this lifehacker article: http://lifehacker.com/5595027/firefox-tab-candy-organizes-your-tabs-in-groups-looks-excellent

But when Minefield has its daily/nightly update for security and stability, it takes TC away. What gives?

This happened

Every time Firefox opened

I am using the nightly Minefield with an outdated but 100% functional extension version of Tab Candy. Download is here:

This is how you can use the latest nightlies without losing TC.

Ok, so I got the newest beta (7/29, rather than the predecessor 7/25) and I'm a little disappointed that fewer of my firefox addons work with this one. The one that I'm saddest to see go is my colored tabs. Just a thought here, but is there any way to integrate an option to color tabs in the Tab Candy release? I sure would love to see that.
