It's not impossible, but can be limiting/hard for one reason.. Netscape.
After working in the industry you quickly learn to hate Netscape for all the
annoying bugs it has in it's implmentation. If you every tried following the
W3C HTML 4.0 standard (with funky stuff like style sheets) then you quickly
find yourself adding little hacks to make Netscape work. You patch a problem
in Netscape 4.08, you break Netscape 4.5! It's crazy!!

Time to get a new browser and not expect the world to change for you! ;)

If Mozilla still doesn't take it (as in your case I think it doesn't), then
give them feedback! Some of those freaks probably aren't aware that their
pages are broken! :)
