When the config setting browser.mailto.dualPrompt on, users can reconfigure their OS default to use Firefox as handler for mailto under Windows, but it does not currently work under Linux (not implemented yet). This bug tracks the implementation of the OS integration.

There are two aspects to it:

  1. We need a way to detect the current default
  2. We need a way to reconfigure the current default.

To configure a default, we already have a way to register other protocolhandlers (for http, https), but Bug 1938198 was created to make the registration consistent with the behavior of the gio command line tool.
