However, 3.6.x will soon hit end of life making my life, and others, much more complicated. 3.6.x has been known for generally being more stable and using less ram then the modern Firefox 10 and even Chrome. The older version of Firefox is already having issues rendering modern websites. What are others who have been holding onto 3.6.x plan on doing?"

Not that many. ... I now use Portable Apps version 9.0.1 (which rather annoyingly keeps asking me to upgrade to version 10)
I used 3.6 until very recently
Best advice I have for any 3.6 users - get the 4.0 version (portable or otherwise) and customise the UI to make it look like 3.6.
Once you have used the magic that is being able to resize multi line input boxes.. you won't want to go back. After the UI has been fixed.
