I still think a native GNOME browser like Galeon or Epiphany is much better. Consistency matters, and if anyone here preferers firefox it's because he/she doesn't value consistency that much.

But since distributions insist in using firefox as default browser, perhaps because they're targetting users that also use Windows, then I think this at least a step in the right direction.

Still missing are: 1. fix button order; 2. instant apply; 3. HIG grouping container (bold label + indent content, instead of frame). Until these issues are addressed, firefox will always feel out of place in the GNOME desktop.
