Just for curiosity...

In reality, product name of Firefox *is* randomized over its user base. 
For example this is detection code for one version of Firefox on web 
traffic analysis service:

<pattern>^Mozilla/5\.0 \(.*\) Gecko/.*(Firefox|BonEcho)/2\.0\.0\.4</pattern>

<pattern>^Mozilla/5\.0 \(.*\) Gecko/.* 
(Butt|Fire|Free|Hidden|...|Sun|...|Thunder|Turbo|Water|Web)(aardvark|adder|...|bird|...|worm|yak|zebra)/2\.0\.0\.4</pattern>
// "..." stands for really long list of variants provided by
// Firesomething extension

<pattern negative="1">^Mozilla/5\.0 \(.*\) 
Gecko/.*(Sun|Thunder)bird/</pattern>

<pattern 
negative="1">Madfox/|Galeon|Epiphany|Flock|Firescape|Iceweasel|Navigator</pattern>
