What about make it to do what startx on windows is doing, it is mixing the functinality of both, i understand that there would by conflict if i'm in the folder where is firefox file and also i have firefox installed, but i recomend to give openvt bigger priority and if someone want to force to use file, he just use ./firefox, it wont break compatibility, onli problem i see is that openvt need root privilege...
