It’s time to get rid of user-agent strings that declare anything other than desktop, mobile, or html version.

If I was a Firefox dev I'd start looking into building in user agent spoofing right into the browser.

It already opens Facebook pages in a special isolated tab. They could have apple.com open in it's own special "safari" tab. I wonder if there's anything preventing them from doing that. I guess it could be bad because it would make their market share appear even smaller.

The irony of Firerfox officially agent spoofing while everyone else uses some variant of "Mozilla" as their UAS is too much.
