I don't see the quicklist in Oneiric, maybe because I've updated from
Natty?

Title:
  [UIFe] Please add unity quicklist item for 'new window' and maybe 'new
  tab'

Status in “firefox” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: firefox

  A Unity static quicklist item that opens up a new window would be
  nice. This would fire up firefox -new-window.

  A proper rationale for this change is explained in comment #5 below.
  Moreover, according to comments by didrocks on bug #709707, we need to
  patch up desktop files to make up for the dropped 'Open a new window
  of this application' feature in Unity. My patch to fix that in Unity
  was rejected, and hence we had to follow the procedure of adding this
  feature to only those applications which support multiple instances.

  Once we get a UIFe for both the string additions, then we will upload
  the change for 'Open a New Window', with the 'Open a New Tab' change
  following soon. Both these changes have been announced to the ubuntu-
  doc and ubuntu-translators MLs, and the translations for both of these
  have been set up on
  https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Translations/Wanted/FirefoxDesktop . Moreover,
  the translated strings for 3 locales have already been merged with the
  desktop file in the attached debdiff. The 'Open a New Tab' change
  later will also incorporate the translations for both the strings done
  till that point of time.
