Inconveniencing the users is a NECESSARY part of getting this vulnerability

The claim is obviously false as the recent update to Firefox 3.6.3
clearly demonstrates. If servers operators believe their users are at

Firefox developers != server operators.

Both groups are committed to their users and both groups will respond to realistic security threats to their users. Neither group should be blackmailed into pointless action by badgering users.
