I don't consider this a Firefox problem and if you don't use broken sites the redirect isn't an issue. Also I don't have the feeling that privacy is a high priority for the Firefox team anyway, just have a look a the default configuration. Feel free to report this as Firefox bug, but as this doesn't affect me and as I could easily use Privoxy to disable redirects for untrusted sites, I'm not going to do anything about it my self.
