Details

There is a bunch of warning dialog logic left over from when it was assumed that the "you're about to hand this off to an external protocol handling app" dialog contained a warning.  That's no longer true, at least in the Firefox implementation of nsIContentDispatchChooser.  These are the network.protocol-handler.warn-external* prefs.  We should figure out if other gecko embedders care about these, and, if not, kill them in order to simplify the code.

Version: Trunk → unspecified

I think these prefs now get used to decide whether to show the dialog or just hand off immediately, so I don't think there's anything left to do. Am I missing something?
