This is like OpenOffice asking Microsoft to include in Windows a promotion for its product along side Microsoft's Office suite.

Even without a browser, Windows 7 users can download software via FTP by using the operating system’s file manager. In Windows Explorer, users can set up a new “network location” using a wizard-like tool, then specify an FTP server with the syntax ftp://ftp . address . com, such as “ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox,” where Firefox is located.
