I don't know if you've looked at the Fedora Extras Firefox package, but it's
nicely integrated so that in Gnome, you can choose it as a 'preferred web
browser', and you get it instead of Mozilla when you hit the web browser
button or any other time Gnome wants to show a web page.
Unlike /etc/alternatives, this is a per user choice, which makes more sense
for an application like this.
I hope we won't see paperclip dialogs like: "Firefox does not seem your default browser. Would you..."
