Actually it is a little bit more complicated. The reason only Vespucci is
supported as default browser is that the default browser is supposed to
implement the -application:openURL: method, which obviously restricts it to
being an Objective-C application. To use other browsers, somebody would need to
implement a little wrapper tool that implements that method and forwards the
URL to the real browser.
