David, which versions should we support?

We had ~20 users last month on version 3.x (~.005% of users), and only 5 on version 3.5.x.  addons has about .08% of users visiting with 3.x.  I think we can safely not support it - preferably put up a banner saying that they should upgrade to a later version of Firefox to use marketplace.

Is there a version we should minimally support, eg: 14? (I'm making up numbers out of thin air here).

IMO "Marketplace won't load" is pretty bad. "Marketplace doesn't work well" is okay.

Since there is a JS error in comment 0, we should just fix that. Fixing `border-radius`, cosmetic things, etc. - I can agree with not fixing those things.

This should be a part of bug 1083267.  If the Marketplace doesn't load due to being offline, due to Fx version, due to dropping every 4th packet -- whatever -- we should handle that gracefully with some well tested code that loads right at the start.

+1 on showing a message.

If a user is on Firefox OS, we have to support back to 18 since thats B2G 1.1:

If a user is not Firefox OS, suggest we support back to the current ESR, which is 31.
