Details

Part of the Firefox experience is the about: URI scheme. We should implement any of these that make sense.

Obvious (and most likely useful/interesting) candidates:

about:
about:about
about:accounts
about:config
about:credits
about:home
about:license
about:mozilla
about:newtab
about:preferences
about:rights
about:robots

Possible, except I don't know the implementation details so they may not be realistic:

about:buildconfig
about:crashes
about:downloads (if/when we have a download manager - I don't know what we do here)
about:networking
about:permissions
about:support
about:sync-log
about:sync-tabs

Probably we need separate bugs for these (perhaps as dependencies of this one), if it's generally considered something worth looking into doing. I just thought of it this morning as for the somethingth time (I'm too embarassed to say how many times exactly) I tried to use an about: URL that didn't work.
