Binary package hint: ubuntu-desktop

Ubuntu allow the user to select its prefered application but when user's
prefered application is a web service (gmail or google calendar for
instance) user can't use it within Ubuntu with the same level of
integration.

For instance there is no easy way to select a popular webmail as default mail 
application.
However you can find on the web a trick to use Gmail as GNOME’s default mailer 
for mailto links http://matthew.ruschmann.net/blog/Linux/gnome-gmail-1.1.html 
(that trick works on a system level, not only in Firefox like Firefox 3's new 
ability to register webapps as link handlers)

** Affects: gnome-control-center (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Wishlist
         Status: Confirmed
