I agree with your other points.  This one is tough, though.  If all of
the media players are customizable and feature rich then what sets yours
apart?  That it comes from a recognizable brand name (Mozilla). That the
goal of the project upstream is to be "customizable".  You can't encode
a complete user-experience in the Summary but you can try to encode
enough that someone will read the description to find out more.
