[QUOTE="Kokopelli, post: 103470"] It is not intuitive but I can see the argument for it being set from Safari though. Other file types do not get their default application set from system preferences either. If there was a central location where you could say "open files of type X with application Y" that would be the logical place to set this value. But as far as I know there is not, which would mean putting default browser in System Prefernces would be making an exception to the rule, not following the established rules. [/QUOTE]
