Comment(by gk):

 Rereading the ticket description I was maybe a bit too fast in offering
 you help to implement a modified Firefox update process. Instead, I could
 look at the security trade-offs if that helps, dunno. Regarding the
 time/effort to deploy it: As I do not know the time and effort to deploy
 Thandy yet in all details I am only guessing but looking at the needed
 patches of Firefox' update process and the .mar generation etc. I would
 say modifying and deploying the Firefox update is much easier. I'll try do
 add some document to this ticket within the next days detailing what needs
 to get patched and describing the update process and the tools needed in
 order to give you some facts to consider.
