This fixes the crashes experienced by some OS X users (see #472).

  1. Change about:blank to ethereum.org for default browser tab in Mist.
  2. Add command-line option to reset Mist interface tabs - a command-line option is required since an in-app GUI option won't be usable if the app keeps crashing.

Same error I had with your other PR unfortunately. Probably my fault thou..

if(!Tabs.findOne('browser')) {
Tabs.insert({
_id: 'browser',
url: 'about:blank',
url: 'https://ethereum.org',

Error is due to node version. My changes require that you are running Node 4 or above. This is the currently LTS release of Node anyway so we should be using it.

@hiddentao should we update the readme including the node >= 4 req?

@luclu Yep that's a good idea. I can do this in #559

Actually looks like I'd already put it in, see https://github.com/ethereum/mist/tree/develop README
