The engine should probably have some API for identifying the mobile UI. At the 
very least, one may try looking for things like status bars or toolbars, which 
Fennec doesn't have, or vice versa, for identification. Relying on the name of 
the app this way is, in my opinion, a Link Widgets bug.

Thanks again,
