Can you explain to me why this makes more sense than a 'normal' install? My concerns are that it's another thing that needs to be maintained to keep in step with WWW::Mechanize::Firefox (should it's prerequisites change), an installation via cpan/cpanp will install the module and it's prerequisites anyway, using another module to do this seems to have no benifit to me.

Secondly it doesn't inform the user about the configuration steps required as detailed in WWW::Mechanize::Firefox::Troubleshooting and WWW::Mechanize::Firefox::Installation.
