Yes, I'm reffering to the fact that all of the listed examples above are added under the same content type "Firefox HTML document" and the default action would be "Open with Firefox", but that doesn't actually do an auto-open on download. see also https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1750990#c3 . Interesting enough, if I manually open the file from download pannel, it works calling the right app. (for example in the .vcf case example, it will open with People which is the default app. in my Windows) - guessing Firefox will pass it to the OS ?
