I agree, there should a simpler way for users to alter the basic format of messages for those don't want to script it. With all the identifiers that'd be needed for scripters to emulate those messages too of course (ie. using $eval($quitmsgfmt,2) or something)
As for the Firefox thing I have no idea why you had to switch, I've never had any trouble using it on these forums. Unless it's a problem specific to FF 2.x?
