Will Firefox no longer be named Firefox?

[Scott Dier]

My guess is they will 'simplify' it for 'us' by giving us a patch set 
they want us to use for all released distributions, most likely forcing 
upgrades to the latest-and-greatest at all times.  In the end, breaking 
the apps behavior over time, too.

Ugh.
