I'm a bit surprised this Gecko engine download is present in phase 2 
rather than inside the downloader application in phase 3 as some kind of 
'recommended addon'.
(and it wouldn't hurt to have that Downloader program as a desktop icon 
either just like CMD, so people know where to go first instead of being 
confronted with a fresh OS that can't do much yet, and then having to 
hunt for 'how can I get more programs when not even a browser is 
present'..they'd have to search the start menu for this Downloader 
program which is hidden among quite a few other programs).
