As I say, I have backported 36.0.1.  So the same major version.

aptitude simply installs a new version for me when it is available as part of 
a routine upgrade.  Unless I tell it not to do so, of course.

So I have the same major version as you have, it keeps itself up-to-date 
without my doing anything, I don't have to do any wondering, or any looking 
for, and it is well integrated with my system.  And I think we both have 
Wheezy.

You may prefer Firefox, but it has none of the advantages over Iceweasel you 
ascribe to it above.
