It seems they really want to remove the possibility to install protocol handlers in FF directly. I wonder, why it still works here for FF 3.5, but the bug-report is for FF 3.4.3 ?? Is that a development branch? Well, anyway, editing RDF files by hand is not the way to go. Instead, we should link to descriptions on how install the handlers system wide. Some people reported they could use org-protocol from other applications that way. We already have an Windows installer on http://orgmode.org/worg/org-contrib/org-protocol.php#sec-3.4 and we should add install scripts for other desktop environments, too. It's trivial to do so for gnome (gconf, just two three lines of code) but I'm not sure, if there's a better way. I think of freedesktop.org, mime or something ? I will check. Thanks for the hint!
