I've had the exact same problem. I don't know how to help you with
Firefox, but I learned a trick that will allow you to run different
Mozilla/SeaMonkey sessions. For some reason, Mozilla's/SeaMonkey's
Composer (the HTML editor) is different, but still related to the
Mozilla/SeaMonkey Navigator and Mail & News apps.
So, I'll start Mozilla/SeaMonkey on my local machine as I normally
do, then SSH to the remote machine (while exporting the display) and
type "mozilla -edit" or "seamonkey -edit".
Once the remote Composer is running, I can open its Navigator window.
