You know the problem you rise here seems very interesting.

It seems it will require some change in Firefox to handle it correctly, 
but just make it known so that those changes can come.

Honestly it's now too late for firefox 3, but the problem must be 
properly reported and described so that the changes can come as soon as 
possible. I could help you report it in a bug, and justify what needs to 
be changed to the i18n developpers.
