I would be more robust and less bug to call it Firefox 4.1 rather thant Firefox 5. People would thing Firefox is suck becouse it to quick to release a new major version. Creating a browser is hard, specially with security problem. Make a quick major version after another will make it like harsh, to elegant QC and R&D.
