I have always said that if we can't ship Firefox with that name while 
following the Fedora policies, the right thing to do is to just rename it, 
not give it exceptions to our policies.

In particular, I find it unacceptable that the packages in the Mozilla stack 
are the ONLY packages to which provenpackagers can't commit. And that 
Firefox repeatedly gets permission to bundle some libraries only because 
upstream refuses to support using the system version, even though it would 
work just fine. And so on…
