[Bug 727372] [NEW] FF 4 requires both .desktop and gconf entries for url handlers

[Rodney Dawes]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: firefox

It seems as though FF4 is requiring that both the old style gconf
entries, and the new .desktop file x-scheme-handler mime types be
registered for handling additional URI schemes. This is broken and it
should only use the glib API for opening the handler for the mime type.
