I am also still using Galeon at home in Debian Stable Etch (compiled
with Firefox) and at work in Gentoo (compiled with Seamonkey). Although
it's posible with Firefox 2.0 to replicate all the Galeon features in
regards to browsing, sessions, tabs, zooming, cookies management etc., I
couldn't get used with the ugly interface of Firefox (custom tabs and
other badly integrated widgets).

However, Firefox 3.0 is shaping quite nicely and almost all its widgets
are indistinguishable from the GTK ones. My wet dream would be a Galeon
browser compiled against the Firefox 3.0 engine (Mozilla 1.9?) with
AdBlock Plus and NoScript equivalents built-in.
