Subtle things like plugins not working properly.

On default installations, Iceweasel plugins are installed in a common
path (such "/usr/lib/iceweasel/plugins") and not on each user's profile,
so AFAIK, moving/copying a profile (~./mozilla) should not interfere with
this.

Problems can arise when transferring profiles between different browser
releases, though.
