Yeah, monodevelop does something similar. In fact, tseng says that he
has a patch in Ubuntu to make a change like this.

We distribute gecko# as a noarch/non-distro-specific library though, so
we can't really modify the target to something specific. Even if we did,
that wouldn't allow us to do "mozilla or thunderbird".

Maybe, since we want to encourage people to use Gecko# and make it easy
to run samples like the browser thingy, we could special case it in the
runtime. I really hate doing this (it's a nasty hack), but it's the only
way I see short of forcing everyone to figure out wha to do in a wrapper
script.
