Bug Description
Binary package hint: firefox-
There are a number of bugs against firefox's choose-
The choose-
The only sane choice is to invoke gnome's (or kde's) open-with dialog. I don't know if this is something that can be easily added to a browser given that it lives in a sandbox and all. But as far I can see, any other choice, especially the current one, is completely insane.
