Does SM identify itself as FF or something safe to sites that check 
browsers?

It identifies as Seamonkey of course and reports pretty much the same
Gecko-engine as FF does. If a website sniffs for the gecko correctly
everything will be fine.
As some sites don't do that feel free to add
general.useragent.extra.seamonkey.spoof in about:config with the value
of NOT Firefox/3.5.4 or similar.

Also the prefbar has a nice user-agent switcher which alows you to
switch in case needed: http://prefbar.mozdev.org/
