I just did that, by right clicking on a blank area of the displayed screen 
after putting "network.proto" in the 'filters' line to narrow the display 
choices.

the 'network.protocol-handler.app.mailto' w/o the quotes first, and then 
it will open another identical window to enter the 'kmail' into.

And I'd have to assume that the remove works.  I wasn't smart enough to do 
the right click the last time and had to hunt the file down and nuke the 
offending line with vim.  Then I was able to re-compose it correctly, at 
which point at least 90% of the firefox segfault exits I was getting went 
away.  Not all mind you, but most.

I've been gone a week, so I'm still not caught up on my email reading...
