 Ok.
 Anyway apart from the technical reasons gnutoo already explained 
 (different arm version), every firefox version can be compiled with 
 brand and name stripped out as iceweasel and icecat already do and that 
 solves all the trademark problems.

 Afaik it's a simple configuration flag but I am not asking anyone to do 
 extra work. It was only a thing I proposed.

 Cheers
