retitle 313579 default handler for links using xdg-open (handle ed2k://, 
lastfm://, itsp://, peercast:// et al in one run)
thanks

Quoting what I just told upstream:

<quote>
Also noticed that support is missing for lasfm://, itsp://, peercast://, etc. 
Looks like everyone likes to come up with their own URL scheme.

Thinking about it (and considering how long it takes to get oneself heard ;-)),
maybe it's better if we solve all in one run.  There's already a program that
can handle them all: xdg-open, so why not offload the effort into it, sharing
it with other browsers and whatnot?

I propose:

pref("network.protocol-handler.app.default", "xdg-open");
</quote>

This boils down to a one-liner patch.  Please, consider appliing it to Debian
(upstream could have some reservations, since xdg-open is not available on all
platforms, but we IMHO shouldn't have any problem with it).

Thanks!
