Regarding the thunderbird multiple instance issue there may be another way to ‘talk’ to thunderbird: it wouls be to behave like a mailto: link.
Indeed if you click on a mailto: link within any application while thunderbird is the default mailer, then it correctly open a new compose windows even if thunderbird is already running (it works at least from firefox, safari an MS Word).
Sadly, behind the hood, I have no idea of how the mailto: links work. All I could witness from my console log is that a process called ‘SyndicationAgent’ seem to participate in doing the magic…
