Probably after Fennec support has been added. Link Widgets now has
tests:

  info.name == 'Firefox'

in linkwidget.jar/content/code.js, and after replacing Firefox in
these tests by Iceweasel, everything works fine. I reported a bug
here:

  https://www.mozdev.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=22205

but I don't know whether the problem should be fixed in Link Widgets,
in Iceweasel (shouldn't the internal name still be "Firefox" because
of such tests, if possible?), or both.
