I took a quick look. I'm not sure how much feedback I can give directly 
related to your implementation of Mozilla sync because I'm unfamiliar with it. 
And I actually have questions rather than specific advice. 

Is there a specific reason why this isn't an app? I don't believe this will by 
accepted into the official release so it will need to be an app for users to 
install it. Even better is if you could integrate with the current bookmarks 
app to sync those bookmarks as well. I do see in your GSoC proposal your 
intention for it being an app. I'm just confused why you're not starting off 
with it being an app. 

Can you explain to me who the users are that you need to create and 
authenticate? Are these different people using the same Mozilla sync? Are 
these not users on the ownCloud instance?

It looks like you're ahead of your own schedule though seeing as GSoC coding 
started today. Keep up the good work! Don't forgot to drop by in IRC to chat, 
we're always there to help.
