Couple persons earlier pointed out that Epiphany does not have Adblock
Plus and that's primary reason why it is not an option for them. I would
like to set that straight. Epiphany has ad blocking feature, which even
is able to download blocklists. It's a bit dumb, but I have found out
that it works rather well. Also, it's tight c/c++, and performs really
well.

Some sites do check for user agent strings, but generally they are more
interested of the family than the accurate version. Generally, although
admittably not perhaps always, there should be no problems caused by the
user agent string being slightly different.

If Ubuntu project actually did move Firefox to multiverse, it would be
pretty big hit to Mozilla. Ubuntu is by far the largest distribution,
and that move would be visible in the browser statistics after a while
(after users would have slowly migrated to newer Ubuntu releases). I
would think that it would be possible at least to discuss further
removing the EULA with Mozilla. Having it is not acceptable.
