Problem is that signature can be faked.
Of course, I don't use it to maintain security on my sites, but to insure that
pages are displayed correctly.
If a visitor using Firefox fakes his signature to look like MSIE, it's his
problem.
Now if MSIE looks pretends to be Mozilla, it's a problem
well there must be some other way to identify or M$ would be screwing
themselves on their own sites.

According to this page:

The like Gecko token has been added (for consistency with other browsers).
C'mon, how can they talk about consistency with other browsers about a string
which is intended to be a signature for all browser?
Problem is that signature can be faked.
