well, the transitional firefox deb package definitely is:

[...]

$ apt-cache show firefox | grep Provides
Provides: gnome-www-browser, iceweasel, www-browser, x-www-browser

[...]

$ apt-cache show gimp-help-en | grep Depends
Depends: gimp-help-common (= 2.10.0-1), gimp-helpbrowser | www-browser

[...]

so make sure to always have the deb installed alongside, it provides
some extra apt relaed bits on top of the snap (mime stuff, the various
"Provides" that other packages expect, the correct bits for
/etc/alternatives and more) ...

ciao
