Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: firefox-3.0

Firefox 2 used to have a fabulous capability found under Tools>Page
Info: the ability to list all the links present on a webpage and now...
it's gone!

This was something tremendously useful as a web development tool.  There
were so many things one could do with it.  By clicking in the display
window and then pressing Ctrl-A followed by Ctrl-C, all the links could
be copied into a text editor.  The things that could be done from there
were myriad.  And now it's gone!

This really isn't good.  Please, please tell me it's not intentional,
that there are plans afoot reinstate it, yes?  If not, I may need to
maintain an Ubuntu 7.10 system just for the purpose of running Firefox
2!  How would that be for progress?

Or can I run Firefox 2 alongside Firefox 3 on the same system?  Or is
there some other way I can do this with Linux?

This is something I *need to do*!
