Because the Android way is to not force one app to handle any action, but to give the user a choice for registered receivers. That's the whole point with Intents. You don't open a browser exe and feed it URL data, you publish an Intent and registered receivers respond. If more than one exists, you get a choice as a user. How do you think the Market opens your Market URL's in the first place. The reason you can link to market:// from your app and have it open there is because of this mechanism. That's the Android way. That's how every single document on Android recommends doing it.
