No.  This has been the case since Fedora 11, actually.  It just didn't 
matter since gconf was where the defaults were kept anyway, and 
gnome-default-application-preferences set the gconf keys, and it never 
got cleaned out.

Now, we're setting _gsettings_ keys in control center, so those gconf 
keys aren't getting updated when the user toggles that.  But it doesn't 
matter.  I pushed an update to the default gconf values to launch 
gvfs-open as the default browser which will read the values out of 
gsettings.

This should all be transparent to the user, no need to document stuff 
that just works.
