Possibly just watching the FF bookmarks file and copying them into Nepomuk. 
This is effectively what Zeitgeist does with web browsing history- it has its 
own metadata database but they are talking about merging it with Tracker.  Of 
course watching the file, copying and reading it is inefficient.  Maybe the 
best way is to do this directly in FF with a FF KDE helper, as we use for the 
FF KDE file dialog integration in openSUSE.
