How does gwibber decide what browser to run? FWIW I believe xdg-open (from the xdg-utils) generally does a good job at the mind-reading required to make the right choice (first checking $BROWSER, then the DE's configuration, then the systemwide default x-www-browser). Ben, what version of Gwibber do you use? If other apps are also not respecting the GNOME configuration, please feel free to file additional bugs (for example by cloning this one).
