I agree with you, here is their release note, in "known issues" (!):

Firefox 3
    * Ubuntu 8.04 includes Firefox 3.0 beta 5. This was felt to be the
      best option despite its pre-release status, in light of the extended
      support lifetime of Ubuntu 8.04 and the importance and complexity
      of Firefox security updates. Further release candidates and the
      final release may be considered for post-release updates.

I cannot understand this choice but I think there is a few "real" issues in TYPO3 to be fixed before patching it to support a yet-unstable browser.
