Bug Description

In the Firefox Add-on Manager I have the Ubuntu Firefox Modifications which is just described as "Ubuntu Firefox Pack". This description is not very helpful since I want to know what it actually does and if it might clash with some other extensions I have installed because they touch the same area. And what I might miss out if I disable it.

The package description is a bit more helpful and says:
 Integrates the browser with Ubuntu to:
  * Enable searching for missing plugins from Ubuntu software catalog
  * Add the following options to the Help menu
    - Get help on-line
    - Help translating Firefox
    - Ubuntu Release Notes
  * Set homepage to Ubuntu Start Page
  * Display a restart notification after upgrading Firefox
  * Add ask.com to the search engines.

It would be nice if this list of features was also displayed in the description in the Add-on Manager.

P.S.: Now that I looked I can't find the mentioned menu entries in the Help menu. Looks like the package description is outdated as well.
