I would submit that's not (entirely) true. The problem with IE is not
just its market share, it's that M$ *intentionally* ignores and breaks
standards, so you got people writing stuff that wasn't just using
extensions, it was outright wrong (by depending on non-compliant, broken
behavior). A Free browser is far less likely to piss on standards like
that. Plus, if a Free browser had such market share that many sites
/depend/ on its extensions, well, it would be much easier for everyone
else to simply copy and support those extensions.

:-D (...exactly why I use mainly FF.)
On an unrelated note, I share Stephen's "WTH were they thinking?!"
w.r.t. GTK's auto-completion.
