Works, as well as other "tabs" on the main screen.
this is using Firefox versions provided by Fedora for the last 2
years (i.e: F-13, 14, 15 [haven't tested on F-16 yet]).

I used it mostly to be updated on my account state with very few
and trivial "actions":
 - Viewing balance, credit cards balance, etc.
 - Downloading the same (as "Excel" reports)
 - Reading the (pretty-awfull) web-mail: this is slow, and if you want
   to save a local copy, you have to open each message as PDF and save
   it from your PDF reader.
 - Ordering checkbooks

No idea about the other items you asked:
