Description Lukáš Tinkl 2009-11-12 12:11:23 UTC
OpenSUSE has introduced in its latest version some KDE integration which would be nice to also have in Fedora. 

List of the features: http://en.opensuse.org/KDE/FirefoxIntegration
Blog post describing the work done: http://www.kdedevelopers.org/node/4099
Source code: http://gitorious.org/firefox-kde-opensuse

Comment 1 Lukáš Tinkl 2009-11-12 12:24:56 UTC
Detailed list of features:
- KDE file dialogs are used instead of Gnome/GTK ones
- KDE dialog for choosing "Open with..." application
- MIME types; KDE file associations are read and being used
- protocol handlers (mailto, irc, ...)
- Proxy settings from KDE are read and used
- widget and icon styles (partially)
- plasma notifications
- Preferences dialogs have apply/cancel buttons just like other KDE dialogs 
- RSS: support for adding feeds to Akregator
- support for Firefox asking and setting itself as the default KDE browser
