Yeah, how dare Mozilla not instantly implement the constant stream of random UI modifications Apple makes on a whim that require every developer to overhaul their UI and potentially make the UX worse?

From my perspective, not making that nonsense priority #1 demonstrates Mozilla's focus on features that actually matter.

Also, patches welcome, write an extension, etc etc etc.

In this case it is not change made on a whim, it's system-wide, and UX not following your system-wide settings is worse for sure.

"Instantly" was true when Lion launched. It's been ages now. And the new design clearly is not "focus on features", but UX. Regarding patches, their have been patches for the scrollbar since day one. It's just Mozilla bureaucracy that makes it impossible to land.
