User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64; rv:56.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/56.0
Build ID: 20171024165158
Steps to reproduce:
Add a protocol handler with registerProtocolHandler. Here's an example snippet for doing that copied from MDN: https://jsfiddle.net/yv2g05b1/
Go to the browser options, in General, under Files and Applications, scroll down to web+burger, select Burger handler, and click Remove. No handlers remain. Click OK.
Actual results:
web+burger still remains in list, now set to Always ask.
Expected results:
should be removed from the list entirely, imo
Where are these stored? I want to clean them up manually.

These are stored in the "handlers.json" file in the application profile.
Removing entries that are reverted to the default from the settings enumeration looks sensible, but is a very low priority.

Please fix this. Because of this open in Github desktop doesn't work. https://github.com/desktop/desktop/issues/5792
