If you say that's the case, then of course I accept that.  You have 
information I don't.  Were we required by Mozilla to update the non-EULA 
version we had?  If Mozilla has authority to require us to change what 
they've already agreed we could ship, that's additionally troubling to me.

The fact that I'm sitting here as an Ubuntu core-dev with no idea about what 
can and can't be done with this package is emblematic of why these kinds of 
packages are problematic in Main/Universe.

I understand why it was decided to keep Firefox official branding in Ubuntu.  
There is a limit beyond which we should not go, however.  I do hope your 
desire to keep the advantages of having the Firefox brand in Ubuntu don't 
cause you to go past that point in accomodating them.
