Latest Tor Browser download

I've needed to go through the Tor Browser installation process several times, on mostly Ubuntu machines.

Instead of navigating to the website from Firefox, downloading the tarball in /download, and extracting it with the Archive Manager, it would be so much simpler to do something like this from the terminal:

wget https://www.torproject.org/dist/torbrowser/latest/tor-browser_en-US.tar.xz -O - | tar xz

This is not possible right now, because the URL for the latest Tor Browser on the website is tied to a specific version. If the Tor installation is added to a script, the script will be outdated as soon as a new version comes out.

Could we create a permanent URL for the latest stable version of Tor Browser? Since installing variants of Tor Browser via package managers is discouraged, it would be nice to make a scripted installation process a bit simpler.
