That sort of special-casing could be done in gnome-shell. It can know what the default browser is (the default handler for x-scheme-handler/http), and could filter out the search results from non-default browsers (all the other apps handling x-scheme-handler/http other than the default). -- desktop mailing list desktop@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/desktop
