My mistake...this was a misunderstanding and I left this one on the CWS but it
was already done.
The user friendly description "OpenOffice.org Extension" was already fixed
somewhere else and is on the master.
Firefox simply displays the default value of a file extension key as the
application name, what is definitely wrong.
Firefox does so for all other file type it cannot display in place (.ODT, .ZIP
or whatever). On Windows 3.x registry extension name forwarding wasn't used but
starting from Win98 even .txt has a forward to "txtfile". The user friendly
description of this file type "Star Office Extension" is indeed used by Firefox.
Even if the name of the forward key would be "OpenOffice.org Extension Manager"
this would be wrong (besides it would break the key versioning) because it does
not describe an application but a file type.
What should be used (and is used by the Windows Explorer and the Shell APIs) is
the description resource text of the binary that is executed on the default
shell command regsitry entry of the last forward.
That firefox does not use this method may be because the multi platform code of
firefox (compare to what firefox tells on Unix).
So this might be a minor bug in Firefox but not with OpenOffice.org
