That is an interesting question, from a personal point of view I would like
the Mageia team to throw developer weight behind Konqueror, my favourite
browser, especially if we aim at "Best KDE OS". With Opera as a non-free
alternative.
From a marketing POV however, Firefox has brand power, one does not throw that
away lightly.
