I have now a first very basic candidate (attached) that you can use to 
route mailto: and similar from firefox to kde/gnome

to activate this, you must go to about:config in firefox and add a new 
string key (by right click on any entry).
Key:  network.protocol-handler.app.mailto
string: /usr/X11R6/bin/nethandler-helper

This may be repeated for news, snews, nntp

And tried for more exotic like: afp, data, disk, disks, hcp, help, 
javascript, ms-help,  shell, vbscript, vnd.ms.radio
