I really thought there's some easy way to include user's scripts when you want

I think the trick is to create a (nearly) empty package "my-firefox-custom"
which depends on firefox and thus pulls it in before its own post-install
takes over.
This sounds as if it should work, but your custom package would need
upgrading every time Firefox was upgraded, so the automation would be lost.
@Sven, depending on how you do your upgrades, maybe a script could
interrogate apt-get as to what packages it intended to upgrade, before
performing it. If 'firefox' was found, the extra action could be taken.
So you'd write a wrapper around 'apt-get'.
