As usual, once landed on mozilla-central, you can't change landed strings without providing a new ID
http://hg.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/rev/5c60f72dad0c

Please fix this before it moves to Aurora next Tuesday.
Summary: Rename tipSection.tip0 to reflect string change → Rename tipSection.tip0 in browser.properties to reflect string change
Francesco, this was a follow-up to a fix an error in the initial commit a few hours earlier. If it weren't for the tree closure of both fx-team and m-c, these two commits would've been minutes apart.

I understand that looking at this commit without this context, it seems like a violation of the rules, of which I'm fully aware, but this an exception.

I completely disagree, but I don't plan on starting a battle of close and reopen.

There are already 5 translation of this string, and 4 of them are broken (not wrong, broken, considering that one variable has a completely different value). The only one correct is mine, because I noticed the error this morning and filed the bug.

Alternative to rename the string is to file individual bugs to be sure these localizers notice it. But that's not something we should do every time a problem like this happens.
Ahaaa, in that case I'll change the string ID! Awesome localizers are awesome.

This'll be amusing if we ever screw up another one of these tips ;)

Francesco, thanks for taking the time to explain why this was absolutely necessary.
