Hi,
  I found that many applications depend on mozilla (mainly libgtkembedmoz.so), like yelp, beagle, epiphany, devhelp, gecko-sharp etc. However the default browser is Firefox. Is it possible to make these apps depend on Firefox instead of mozilla, so that users won't need to install both Firefox and mozilla anymore?

Firefox is built static and so doesn't provide gtkembedmoz.
However we are working on moving all gtkembedmoz consumers to mozilla-xulrunner which is a new "runtime environment" of the mozilla platform.
At least mozilla can't be used anymore since there are no development files in STABLE for 10.1
