(Whiteboard: [nsbeta2+] 1d)

Mac specific platform integration issues:

Use Internet Config to control mapping of protocols to helper apps.  Impacts (at
least) Gecko, Necko and Prefs.  The latter should definitely use IC as the UI for
setting helper apps as it will largely eliminate the Mac specific work required.

tony has done the work for dispatching external protocols to IC. There still 
needs to be an XP UI to say for dispatch mailto: externally but that is a 
seperate issue so I am marking this fixed.

Steve says that (last time he spoke with davidm) if there's no MIME mapping in 
our list, Mozilla will search Internet Config for MIME mappings.

Gagan, has similar work been done for networking protocol handling from Internet 
Config? (e.g. dispatching ftp:// or whois:// to other applications)

Likewise, mscott or anyone, I don't quite understand davidm's 2000-05-03 17:36 
comment --- does this mean that someone needs to open a new feature tracking bug 
to cover the XP UI for external mailto: dispatching, or is it on someone else's 
plate, or...?

Thanks!
davidm is gone; reassigning to gagan to ensure he sees this.

Gagan, this should be marked a dup of the bug I filed on Gordon to implement the
Internet Config hookups for the Mac for helper apps.  
yup dupe... have to reopen to mark that...
