Just voted for this bug. We are locking certain prefs in the default
installation (for example browser and extension updates are done via
packages, so we diable eg "app.update.enabled").

Debian is shipping a patch in their packages, Ubuntu isn't (see
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/thunderbird/+bug/623844).

Title:
  Firefox 3.6 does not honour lockPref

Status in The Mozilla Firefox Browser:
  In Progress
Status in “firefox” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: firefox

  In firefox 3.5 the following worked:
  Set
  lockPref("network.proxy.type", 5);
  in /etc/firefox-3.5/pref/firefox.js

  Setting lockPref in /etc/firefox/pref/firefox.js in firefox 3.6 does
  not lock down the proxy.
