I found a bug[1] in gnome-core that seemed related to this issue, and
seconded the call for removing the iceweasel dependency. The response
was that security was the driver for this, and that I should report
iceweasel's lack of GNOME support as a bug.

1. Is there any background or conversation the RT had that I can lookat

to better understand their decision? I can't seem to source anything
relevant.

http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=682481 is themeta-gnome3 bug, which has contributions from the security team. Therelease-notes discussion inhttp://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=683428 is alsorelevant.
