Description Daniel Kaplun 2008-09-21 23:03:25 UTC 
When I was asked what program to run to open a certain file in Firefox, it took me about one minute to find /usr/bin/gedit.

I advise adding an option to explicitly state the path of the file.

We get this report quite often, but it is not a Nautilus bug, it's a GtkFileChooser bug (and a Firefox bug for not using Nautilus' mime application chooser). 

As such, I'm marking it a duplicate of the best matching bug I could find. But please be aware that we are very alert to this issue. Thanks.
