<pre>Looking a bit further in xdg-settings, the top of dispatch_generic() shows
setting not to be supported anyway:
# We only know how to get or check the default web browser.
[ x"$op" != x"get" -a x"$op" != x"check" ] &&
exit_failure_operation_impossible
On the other hand, reading the xdg-mime code a bit more, I figured out, though,
that I could create a .local/share/applications/mimeapps.list file where I can
declare my preferences. I did so using a regular editor, and now xdg-open does
use firefox for http again.</pre>
