Bug Description
Under KDE, if from the download screen I ask to open the folder, I get a strange application, called files, to be spawned to browse the directory, instead of the more natural Dolphin. I am using Kubuntu.
How to reproduce:
1. Start Firefox under KDE
2. Download any file from the Internet
3. Open the Download page
4. Within the downloaded file entry, click on the small "folder" icon on the right and wait a little bit
Expected result:
Dolphin file system browser to be started
Actual result:
A programm called "files" from GNOME environment is started. Most of the icons in the program are missing as I am running KDE from Kubuntu.
This happens 100% of the times.

Which fixes the problem.
As I have never installed GNOME (but maybe some components have been pulled in by some GTK+ package), this is still a bug.
