Hmm ... interesting.  I always thought it was a licensing issue.

The only differences between Iceweasel and Firefox is that Iceweasel doesn't
contain any Firefox artwork from Mozilla which has been trademarked.
Artwork that has been trademarked would be restricted in its use.
Presumably Ubuntu have decided that they don't care about this.

The other difference is that Iceweasel may contain security fixes from more
recent versions of Firefox.
