During Mozilla installation, the installer should ask:
Do you want default Mozilla to be your browser?
Add a shortcut on destop?
Set mozilla.org as homepage?

Netscape 4 asked these questions. It would only be right to implement this into
 mozilla.
Mozilla _should_ be asking the "default browser" question.  Is it not?
On Windows it asks on first load. Actually, even if you say 'No' it becomes the
default mysteriously...
Mozilla itself asks about default browserness at launch. 

The shortcut is always created, so you're asking for a choice to turn that off?

You'd *like* an option to reset the homepage to mozilla.org? We have code for
that but were assuming the mozilla.org folks wouldn't want it and were only
going to enable that in distributor builds. It'd be easy enough to turn on once
bug 122684 is checked in.
