I'd say 80-90% of the functionality will be just fine. Unless something has drastically changed in version 3 of FF, where things will 'break' will be in using the integrated versioning and checkout of documents. Using IE, you can open the document directly from the server and transparently re-version/update the remote document. This doesn't work quite so well with non-IE browsers.
(I'd love to learn differently, BTW. We've go a small Mac population, and if we can get these features working on their machines as well as it does the Windows machines, it'll be a nice win.)
