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.
