In any case, I think Firefox fits in pretty well in Natty, and I'd be interested to know what you think currently stands out. > It takes a lot of work every release to get the plugin going to make Firefox > act in some > way like a regular addition to the desktop.

Well, it's already integrated with the global menu. In addition to this, I'm going to be doing work on integrating it with the launcher in Unity next cycle. However, a spec or some suggestions of useful things I could do with quicklists would be welcome.
