I think that's at least the cause of the issue, where it is, is another matter. 

Firefox seems to use gtk to provide the protocol implementation, so I wonder if
gtk apps are concerned too.

gtk seems to special case when the protocol is missing and implementing it
within the app, bypassing our setting and making it not work with other apps:

This might part of the root issue.
