Firefox has forked all the relevant UI.

Douglas, can you also reproduce this using Mozilla?

Perhaps the summary for this should be changed--this applies to all OS X
applications, not just RealOne.

Mozilla 1.7b has  no problem selecting an OS X application 
as a helper application. Mozilla uses a completely different
set of dialogs to select helpers.
