Good catch. More fallout of the Mozilla trademarks... (Am I starting
to sound like Kevin?)
It doesn't seem to be an unavoidable requirement, it says:
"If you proposed Start/Home Page is not similar to the existing Firefox
Start Page, please be prepared to provide a rationale for the change,
and how it would benefit the end-user. "
I think we could manage such a rationale.
