There maybe serious reasons having the Linuxulator, i do not know. But

from Adobe for desktop systems, Flash. That's it.
Well, Linuxulator allows me to use binary only applications of Linux in
FreeBSD without too much problem.
I think running Firefox in the Linuxulator is nonsense, because it's
supposed that Linuxulator is there for applications that can not be
ported to FreeBSD (for example: the code is not open, you bough a
privative linux-or-windows-only binary app). Naturally the Linuxulator
will always lag behind Linux, but it works for me and I bet I'm not the
only one.
I think it should only be removed if
1) no one wants to maintain it
2) It obstructs the development of new code.
Otherwise, I see no logical reason in this.
