 Sure. The thing is someone has to open bugs in Mozillas Bugzilla and
 propose a patch in order to get Mozilla and the responsible devs aware of
 your work. I got e.g. the HTTP-Auth patch included into Mozilla (see:
 https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=696662) and TBB based on FF
 12 does not need it anymore. But maybe for the other patches to get
 accepted we should have a more general strategy including e.g. some kind
 of preference the "normal" Firefox user may toggle to get a particular
 feature activated. Maybe there are some folks who do not want a memory
 only permissions manager or that want to get their SSL session id cached.
