Mozilla's not going to give you a "pure Aqua experience" unless you rewrite it from scratch.
Please! Don't even suggest such a thing!! It's been rewritten and bloated so many times I don't think it'd make it through another rewrite!!
As it is now on the OS X system, Aqua is very limited in preferences like color schemes and such when compared to other GUI systems like Windows or KDE. By having it elsewhere, it opens the door for more customization. If others like that ability, it may encourage Apple to add such features to Aqua.
At least I hope so. The link above appears slashdotted and I cant see it (yet). I hope Apple left the door open for those kind of customizations.

Uhh. Note. OS X has Omniweb, An opera that doesn't suck, and Internet Explorer. Of which the first two inheirt the Aqua widget set. IE has basic aqua widgets. Mozilla has its own widget set which is fugly and themes aint going to fix that. Now... Why use it? IE on Mac is still incredibly better than IE for windows. Opera is faster than both and its not as ugly as the Linux version of opera (Why in the sam hell do people still use Linux?) Oh well.

Or shove it up your ass Apple!!!
Also, let this post serve as an announcement of my new 'BlueNose' look.
I paint a shiny blue Dot on my nose.
Don't let me catch you using my "blueNose" look unless it's to be used on my face!!!
