Comment(by mgleahy):

 Thanks - that definitely clarifies things.

 With that in mind, would it not then make sense to delete properties that
 do not apply to the cloned object, or replace them with empty functions?
 Maybe it's trivial and/or inappropriate, but my thinking behind this is
 that if the functions don't do anything, then their mere presence as
 properties of the object is misleading to someone who's analyzing the code
 at runtime (e.g., in Chromium, I can log the event object to the console
 and see that it has the preventDefault function...my first thought would
 be that I can use this).

 If instead you think there's nothing that needs to be done within
 OpenLayers, or if maybe this should be considered a Firefox bug instead,
 then perhaps this ticket should be closed.

 Thanks again for looking into this.
