Pretty sure that Mozilla.com won't allow that. Primarily because Firefox is their trademark. I haven't gone through the javascript which tries to detect the browser, but it could possibly see that Iceweasel is based off Gecko and it also has a date. If that information can be trusted, Iceweasel could get the "triangle toggle" automatically. But the fact is that almost everyone who sniffs browser UA string, just tries to look for a simple string e.g. Google maps features work by the small change discussed above.
