Update # 1:
There appears to be a small bug in new code. New version is inserting an opening P tag in image DIVs, but it's not closing them. I never used P tags in all images blocks. As a result FF 2.x is not showing many images. I hope this will get fix soon.

Update # 2:
I've downgraded from 2.1 to 2.0.7 again due to problems. Hope wordpress team will fix problem in next release.
