Title:
  [MASTER] "Open With" dialog not user-friendly

Status in The Mozilla Firefox Browser:
  Unknown
Status in firefox package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Committed
Status in thunderbird package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in iceweasel package in Debian:
  Unknown

Bug description:
  When choosing to open a file in Firefox, an "Open With" dialog appears. 
  You can choose to save the file or open it with a program from the list.
  However, if the desired program to open the file with is NOT listed, the user
  must navigate the filesystem to /usr/bin (or wherever) and select the
  appropriate program.

  A more user-friendly way would be to list all of the known programs installed
  that are available to open files with, and then have an "Other..." or
  "Advanced..." button for the user who would rather navigate the filesystem.
