The web browser is not a random application, but a very central part of a 
desktop operating system. It is vital that the web browser integrates 
properly into the desktop environment. Firefox does not integrate at all, it 
does not even honor the desktop's icon theme anymore (not even the GNOME 
setting, let alone the Plasma one).
