As far as I know, there wouldn't be. Firefox UX doesn't seem to be looking at that for any platform. Here are their mockups for Linux.

I can raise your concern to them, if you want. I'm just afraid that it may add inconsistency to the platform. If we want Firefox to put the Firefox Button/menu beside its toolbar, how about other apps?

What do you think?

Allan, I haven't followed the Firefox usability and design discussion
around the Firefox Button, but can you tell us if there will be an
option to expose the button/menu off a button in the toolbar next to the
URL, as it is in Chrome? That would be most straightforwardly compatible
with our direction.
