if that main-developers would be interested Mozilla for sure
would not refuse code to make the integration better instead
install addons and themes which breaks from time to time

but forget the GNOME developers here, they appear to live
in their own world and are happy that FF is using GTK

KHTML as rendering engine is dead, look how badly it renders
with cms-customized webforms while any other browser agress
with the developers intention over at least 10 years

that's why there are enough rendering engines and the energy
should be put in pure desktop-integration and use one of
the established engines in the background
