[Bug 973256] [NEW] Thunderbird starts in unusable state

[Jane Silber]

Public bug reported:

I'm on an up-to-date Precise beta.  Approximately 30% of the time that I
start Thunderbird, it starts in the state shown in the attached
screenshot - no accounts shown, no mailboxes shown, etc.  Closing the
application and restarting it will fix the problem (in my experience
this has never happened twice in a row - the restart has always come up
as expected).  Closing the application is also the only way I have been
able to work around it - clicking on any of the actions shown in the
screenshot has no effect.  I have not been able to determine any common
pattern of when this happens and when it doesn't, and cannot reproduce
it reliably.  Happy to help debug if you wish though.
