SharePoint and Firefox 3

I think most of the SharePoint developers and administrators know that with the change form Firefox 2 to Firefox 3 some functionality of SharePoint have became unavailable.

Especially adding Webparts to a site and using the PeoplePicker don't work anymore with Firefox 3. So I want to know how you deal with this problem when some of your users are complaining about having to use the IE to get the same functionality as with Firefox 2.

It's quite plain to me that it is not possible to get the full functionality with Firefox but it would be great to get at least the same with Firefox 3 as you got before with Firefox 2.

Or are there any workarounds to get Firefox 3 working with SharePoint properly?

The main problem seems to be the fact that whenever a pop-up windows opens during a SharePoint action, like adding a webpart to a site, the information or data form the pop-up windows is not transmitted to the initial window which opened the pop-up window.
