What I've done is configure "everything" (in my case that means urxvt, Konsole, Emacs, Thunderbird and not much else) to use x-www-browser and then I use update-alternatives to configure what that means. Firefox in my case. I guess this can still work when using a non-Debian browser like Vivaldi, maybe some extra work is needed to make update-alternatives aware of Vivaldi, I don't really know.
