@Coren > If it is not possible, what is the goal of this bug ? I understood the problem was the open with dialog which is not user friendly when we want to choose the app we want to use to open the file.

If there is no cross-linux desktop API, then perhaps we can cheat and detect the desktop environment with the extension, or perhaps, make it configurable in the addon configuration window.

The point is mozilla is not going to resolve this problem until a lot of time, so instead of waiting for that, we could create a quick and dirty fix with a firefox addon.
