For your information, I've been keeping a eye out that I've been monitoring front end security patches landing in Firefox (mozilla-central/browser) for more than a year and a half. I've been porting these changes as they come in. Front end Firefox vulnerabilities are pretty rare compared to backend problems. It is possible that I've missed one or two, but I believe I've either fixed all known (front-end) security issues or confirmed that they don't affect SeaMonkey.
