I'm one of those who want a softfork(?) of Firefox: a set of patches on top of official Firefox that keeps getting expanded until it eclipses the official Firefox.

The problem with soft forks is that virtually no one wants to maintain HTML rendering or implement CSS color for fun, and eventually when the underlying engines change, the soft forks have to keep up, leading to the same sort of complaints that we see about macOS requiring significant annual reworks.
