Is it possible to edit the firefox.desktop file such that I can

or provide me with an example? I'm having some difficulty finding a
resource through Google.

KDE: right-click on the application menu, "Edit Applications", Internet->Mozilla Firefox, edit the Command: entry so that it executes what you want instead of the default "firefox %u" command.

Everything: Just find whatever .desktop file is being used by your desktop environment with "locate \*desktop | grep firefox" (there may be a few of them.) Then edit the Exec= line so that it invokes the command line you want instead of the default "firefox %u". This will almost certainly break every time firefox gets updated though.

Alternatively, copy the default .desktop file to wherever your Desktop directory is, then edit that, and always launch your firefox from that icon/whatever instead of the system menu. That will get rid of the "menu entry goes back to default after update" problem.
