We want FHR to be more proactive in helping users who are experiencing problems. Bug 1024687 will have a UI spec, but under the hood what we're going to want to do is run the server FHR component in a hidden context. If we need to prompt the user about specific issues, we can use the support API to do that; otherwise it can just close itself. Some unresolved issues here about how we do this without affecting startup performance; whether we do this on *every* startup or just daily; also we'll probably want to separate out the "display" portions of the server-side code from the problem-calculation bits so that we don't bloat downloads unnecessarily.
