I'm guessing a port of Firefox is asking too much!?

Yes it is. WebKit with a custom Zune based Browser will have to do the trick.

Firefox uses Gecko as rendering engine, Rob ports Webkit - so one does not bring the other.

Why not start from scratch?

Probably because it's more work and less features.
