Or, I guess, it could alternatively be fixed by renaming the Aurora packages to firefox-dev with a firefox-dev.desktop. That might be closer to upstream’s expectations: Aurora tries very hard to coexist with stable Firefox rather than replace it. (It creates its own separate Firefox profile ‘dev-edition-default’, and switches back to it on every launch unless you turn off the “Allow Firefox Developer Edition and Firefox to run at the same time” setting.)

This is because the Firefox windows report a WM_CLASS of ‘Firefox-dev’, which GNOME Shell by default tries to match against the basename of the firefox.desktop file (‘firefox’). This can be fixed by adding ‘StartupWMClass=Firefox-dev’ to firefox.desktop for the Aurora packages. (The firefox-trunk package from ppa:ubuntu-mozilla-daily/ppa is not affected because its WM_CLASS ‘Firefox-trunk’ matches the basename of firefox-trunk.desktop.)
