Please provide an example URL with such a torrent file.
This is either a file served as application/octet-stream or gecko had to guess the mime-type

They say in that bug that the user can just use the ui to manually edit what firefox does with it, but that functionality was removed, so it can't be invalid since the workaround no longer exists.
