I'm closing this issue:

1) webbrowser.get("firefox") currently works

2) firefox on OSX doesn't provide hooks to open tabs instead of windows (neither through the command line nor though AppleScript) which means that the 'new' and 'autoraise' options of webbrowser.open cannot be supported due to lack of support in FF itself.
