@PomCompot > Ok thank your for your response. You are right, if I modify in Nautilus the application which opens a PDF file for example, Firefox will use this application to open PDF files by default (unless I have configured firefox to open it with another application).
So Firefox already uses xdg-open by default. The thing we need is the Nautilus (or desktop environment) dialog to choose the application because the firefox one is not userfriendly.
If this dialog is hardwired in Nautilus, I don't think we can do something easily with a plugin to fix this. It would be even better if this function is supported by the freedesktop project.
