Ubiquity 0.5 does in fact work in Firefox 3.0. However there are some rendering issues in Firefox 3.0 that have been patched but are not 100% foolproof. We won't be spending time on extensively tested workarounds for Firefox bugs that have been patched in 3.5, because it's not a good use of developer time.
If you do run across Ubiquity issues, you are encouraged to file bug reports or use Get Satisfaction to get them resolved, no matter which browser version it is in.
