  * Drop the browser plugin entirely. It depends on a JS XPCOM component
    being dropped in to the Firefox install folder in order to function,
    and this doesn't work for several reasons:
    - Firefox isn't installed to /usr/lib/firefox, but has a volatile install
      path which changes with minor releases
    - JS components are all compressed in to it's omni.jar. Firefox won't
      load any that are installed in to components/
    - Even in non omni.jar builds (which we don't support), Firefox will not
      load these extra components unless they are added to it's components.list
      (which exists to stop third-party installers from doing exactly this!)
    No application should drop random XPCOM components in to the Firefox
    install folder. The *only* correct way of adding extra components is
    via an extension, so this stays disabled until it is fixed
