--- Comment #10 from Nate Graham <n...@kde.org> ---
Following supportive comments on the mailing list, I'm preparing a patch to
remove the "in an application based on the contents of the url" feature, which
is confusing, imposes a speed penalty, and apparently doesn't work for certain
URLs. The patch is fairly simple but there's a conceptual issue: what's a good
default setting now?

Right now the default setting is "let KIO figure it out", and presumably this
should move to "default to browser X". But what is Browser X? Should we really
be in the business of picking preference orders for 3rd-party software? What
about if 1st-party software is also installed, like Falkon or Konqueror? Should
we leave it up to distros to populate ~/.config/kdeglobals with a sensible
default for BrowserApplication[$e]?

Any ideas or guidance would be appreciated.
