Comment (by gk):

 Replying to [comment:51 cypherpunks]:
 > Is this ticket about protection for noobs who can't distinguish between
 shell and browser? If so, shouldn't we make this feature obey TBB's design
 requirements? Something like "Firefox should handle URLs (instead of
 system shell)".

 I am fine opening a follow-up ticket for that idea - after we plugged that
 hole in this ticket.
