In general I agree, butone of the problems with this is the need to
support the new Firefox 3.5. Neither Hardy nor Jaunty support it, but I
am hopeful that when Karmic is released in October it will support it.

Support for FF3.5 is important in a desktop deployment, because it will
be the only non-beta version to support weave

when FF3.5 is finally released as a non-beta :-(


Weave will allow synchronization between multiple firefox instances run
by the same user, so no matter what machine he is running FF on he will
have access to his history, bookmarks, passwords etc.
