Not exactly sure everything you're going for, but here are a few tips:
1) Don't get any tabbed browsing extensions at this point. It is my understanding that with the 1.0 release some of the most wanted features that people get the various tabbed browsing extensions (such as TabBrowser Preferences) for are going to be in the 1.0 release.
2) The reason it doesn't come with all these extensions is twofold. Both reasons have been touched upon already, but I just want to reiterate them. First is that they are **NOT** made by Firefox developers. There is no guarantee with any of them that they will work or work properly in Firefox. Because of this, it is best, IMO, to use Firefox with only those extensions which you will actually use/need. The second reason is that in the case of most extensions they are things that not every person would need in a browser. Rather than include "everything but the kitchen sink," they try to include the most basic and necessary things. Some features in extensions have been found to be so demanded that they have been added in. Most others, however, remain as extensions.
As for spellbound, I don't use it so I can't help you there. The suggestion for the MozillaZine Forums is an excellent one though.
