This really, really does not matter.

  The problem is that, like the boy that cried wolf, they have no way to get attention if they actually want it. Say that version 32 introduces a "do what I mean" feature where the browser simply goes to whatever site you want, no user interaction required. How are they going to publicize that version 32 is more important than 31 or 33 or 27, all of which were tiny incremental upgrades?

    They could name it Firefox XP, I guess. All silliness aside, I see your point. But is the browser really still at a point where such earth-shifting changes are likely to occur? The biggest single change of the last few years that I can think of is the addition of tabs to browers, and even that is a feature that's been around for 20 years in other programs. Any change that's much bigger than that almost warrants a whole new product, regardless of your numbering scheme.
