Created an account and tested... This time again, window.controllers is used to detect the browser. Ouch!

if (window.controllers&&typeof vBrowserProduct==="string"&&vBrowserProduct==="Gecko"&&/rv\:([^\);]+)(\)|;)/.test(vBrowserUserAgent)) {
  vEngine="gecko";
  vEngineVersion=RegExp.$1;
  if (vBrowserUserAgent.indexOf("Firefox")!=-1) {
    vBrowser="firefox";
  } else if (vBrowserUserAgent.indexOf("Camino")!=-1) {
    vBrowser="camino";
  } else if (vBrowserUserAgent.indexOf("Galeon")!=-1) {
    vBrowser="galeon";
  } else {
    vBrowser="other gecko";
  }
}

The guest URL in Bug 992652 also works well \o/
