Still wonder about this one.
I suspect it would be better to provide a
/usr/lib/iceweasel/iceweasel-edu-wrapper script in the package, and do
the diverting in the postinst instead of the preinst.

I've adjusted the package in svn, to a point where I believe it could
go into Debian and Debian Edu. But the name firefox-tuning is a bit
misleading. It is tuning iceweasel, not firefox, and tuning is a but
generic. What about debian-edu-iceweasel-local-io or something like
that instad?
I guess we could move the rest of the iceweasel tuning into the
package, and make debian-edu-iceweasel-tuning a more fitting name. :)
