Not really, actually.
We use a different approach. That's fine.
My request is that they don't step on each other's toes :)
Installing a desktop file with x-scheme-handler/http breaks the KDE solution,
so I was hoping to get an agreement on not installing such desktop files.
But I'm starting to see that this won't happen, so I guess I'll stick to "if
KIO supports a scheme and an app exists for the mimetype x-scheme-
handler/<scheme>, then give priority to KIO". If anyone complains that this
isn't xdg-spec-compliant, I want it to be said already that this is because
the spec doesn't make room for our solution...
