Integrate User Agent Switching into Nightly Tester Tools

Also allow masquerading as

• some typical browsers for the main platforms (including platforms other than the current one):
  • IE for Windows
  • Safari for Mac
  • Konqueror (KHTML) for Linux
  • Konqueror (Webkit) for Linux
• Anything the user wants to add by type-in or copy-paste

Of course, provide a prominent button and/or menuitem to revert to the current app's default. Maybe also revert at every restart (pref-dependent?).
Something which UA Switcher does not provide, but Konqueror does, is site-specific UA strings.

My choice of UA strings addon does both! By the way, it doesn't know other other UA string related stuffs. ;)

Lets concentrate on specific use cases for Nightly testers. If there are extensions already out there which can change the UA, we don't have to re-invent the wheel.
