Hmm, there should be possible set default browser for individual users, not only as system global. Where falls 'htmlview' and 'launchmail' wrappers hich was in earlier Fedora releases? I think they was rather gnome-oriented, but (not know how launchmail) htmlview could read ~/.htmlviewrc where was users preferences set. Maybe this idea isn't bad.
