Redirecting all AMO homepage visits by non-firefox users to the following page:
/en-US/firefox/extensions/?sort=users

A button also needs to be added to the top of that page, and a few other UX changes need to happen per the explanation of Test #1 in bug 1159335.
Please remove this terrible button for the download link for non-firefox users. I often use SeaMonkey but help translating extensions that are available for Firefox only. I have to start Firefox then to download these extensions! What a nonsense. Non-firefox users are locked out now! Besides, the button says that the extension is for Firefox only but that is not true because the button says it for e.g. Adblock Plus and NoScript as well that are available for SM.

Please undo this nonsene!

After information about this problem, test with other browsers from Linux openSUSE 13.2: QupZilla nd Konqueror.

Result: the same nonsense!
