Well, I'd say only for the "$DISPLAY not null" code path, but exactly
where I'm not sure. I see a movement to freedesktop specifications,
and for example gnome and xfce uses "feed" xdg-open with the browser
the user selects from DE configuration tool.

Since presenting a browser selected via alternatives seems odd when a
user selects a different browser in the DE config panel, it might be
nice have xdg-open as the first option, but it's your call to decide
:)
