No, I just tested this. Even with GNOME installed, and the URI handler
patch, I was able to override my normal mailto handler of Evolution by
setting:
network.protocol-handler.external.mailto=true
network.protocol-handler.expose.mailto=true
network.protocol-handler.app.mailto=gvim
By reverting the settings to their default, Evo becomes my default
mailto handler once more.

Not true in my tests. The protocol handler app defined in the config
takes precedence.
