Could there secretly be a Mozilla desktop environment in the works? We could always use another competitor in the marketplace, and we would love few things more than if that competitor were the Mozilla Foundation. There's a discussion over at the Mozilla.dev.planning list that has stirred up the idea of building a Desktop Environment. The whole environment would be based on XUL (XML User Interface Language) and could become a reality much like extensions to the popular Firefox, Thunderbird, and the Minimo Mobile Browser product lines. Only time will tell if this discussion evolves into the build of the next generation cross OS desktop environment.

There actually was a live CD distro I saw a while back that used mozilla as the UI.

that is the current page, and it seems they are using a new interface, but you can see screenshots at the old page
