Interestingly (to me), firefox is not linked with the gnome libraries (or, at least, running ldd on the firefox binary doesn't show that), and running strings on the binary doesn't find any strings with XDG. So I guess firefox is doing something a little more devious. I guess I could dig into the firefox code and try to figure it out, but my annoyance will have to grow by another order of magnitude before I go down that rabbit hole. Cheers.
