Waterfox – Firefox fork retaining XUL support

Firefox's Extended Support Release, which will keep getting updates for almost a year, certainly helps.

I've been on ESR because of vimperator/pentadactyl not being portable, plus some other extensions like FoxyProxy, Tree Style Tabs etc.

But today I discovered tridactyl works well enough on latest FF to suit my vim-ish needs, while the other two have been fairly completely ported.

Thanks for the tip about tridactyl, I've only seen Saka Key so far in this space.

I did not like Saka Key (some weird behavior sometimes), but Vim Vixen comes close to VimFx.
