Konqueror tries to launch kmail which is not installed on my system. In the
console, I get (when I click on a mailto URL) :
$ konqueror http://bugs.debian.org/420108
Could not find 'kmail' executable.
kmailservice: WARNING: Could not launch mail client:
kmailservice: KDEInit could not launch 'kmail'.:
Could not find 'kmail' executable.

x-sensible-browser does not exists. sensible-browser launches konqueror :-(

I would really prefer a preference dialog as for the mail program.
The default can/should be sensible-browser or x-www-browser, but the user
will be able to change this.

Note that, as I configured the mailer for reportbug-ng to be icedove, I was
really surprised when konqueror was launched for a mailto URL.
