This will likely remain constant in official mozilla.org builds after 1.0, the point of the preferences is to allow for identification of modified products (i.e. MultiZilla). Using this value is not a recommended way of discovering the product in question for this reason. See http://www.mozilla.org/docs/dom/domref/dom_window_ref50.html for more details.

This bug requests to keep navigator.vendor constant. This is impossible, per the specs. INVALID. File a bug (and mention it here) on creating another, clean means to identify Firefox and ideally also generic xul apps.
