We (KDE SIG) can't, because Firefox is not maintained by us. This is another 
issue with it, we have no control whatsoever over its packaging. It is not 
even open to provenpackager! (The Mozilla stack is the ONLY set of packages 
not open to provenpackager in all of Fedora, because of the trademark 
nonsense.)

Just like locking you into only installing M$ software "protects" you from 
malicious software. That doesn't mean it is compatible with Free Software. 
(It is obviously not.)

That integration is not packaged in Fedora and will likely never be, because 
of the maintainership and trademark situation. So this is not an option for 
us.
