[Bug 396275] Re: Firefox Downloads window opens doc files in Wine instead of OpenOffice

[Hephaestus Malleus]

Micah,

Is there a way to specify which program the Downloads window itself will
use?  I have noticed that when I go to Edit -> Preferences ->
Applications, there is no way for the user to delete an application in
the list if there is a problem.  I.e., if Firefox says a certain
application is (Default) there is no way to change it.  Even if a user
selects another application, Firefox will still say the original program
is "(Default)" and will always want to use that app.  Firefox also wants
to over-ride Nautilus/Gnome default apps for some reason.

Is there another way a user can manually edit the Applications used by
Firefox?  Does Firefox v3.5 use a different list for the Applications
window then it does for the Downloads window itself?


I think it would be nice if future versions of Firefox added more
functionality to the Applications window GUI, so a user can delete an
app on there or set another app as "(Default)" manually.
