[add-art dev] Firefox 3 & add-art

[Steve Lambert]

Regarding our Firefox 3 bug/feature request which you can see here

https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=384778#c2

Jamie and I finally weighed in on this by commenting on the feature  
request.  Boris Zbarsky made a suggestion on how we could swap images  
without the requested feature.  Sounds more complex than our hacked  
solution right now.  Boris emailed me personally last night (see below).
