Public bug reported:
In firefox, when selecting a helper application I found a slightly annoying bug.
Reproduce like this.
1) Click on a link that requires you to launch a helper application.
2) Choose "Open with" and that "Choose" button
3) Press / to be able to type the path to the application.
Now when you begin typing the path it will autocomplete for you, even the
application-name, however if you just press enter when when you get the
application-name it won't work. Only the part that you've typed yourself will
be the application that is tried (like /usr/bin/kaf instead of
/usr/bin/kaffeine).
It is possible to work around by adding a space at the end which will
complete the auto-complete for you but that's not exactly intuitive,
especially not when the complete path to the application is visible on
the screen for you.
