Subscribing, because integration of firefox (and thunderbird) in KDE still needs a lot of manual interaction in Hardy.
Here's the current situation on a fresh Kubuntu Hardy install:

- The following actions open a plain file open dialog instead of having (a) reasonable KDE defaults, or (b) offer KDE's application chooser (which presents apps in the start menu)

1) new file associations
2) clicking on a "mailto:" link
3) Choose "open containing folder" in FF's download window

This is quite ugly, because most users have no idea which executable to point firefox to (and I also have to open a commandline and do a "which xxx" everytime)
