The default Sailfish browser occasionally can open links opened in Android apps, for instance, the Feedly app can open links in the default browser, and this is all fine and good, but it also forcibly opens links such as Google Drive documents instead of letting the Android system decide. This also affects any other apps that send information between their own parts as urls. Best example would probably be trying to open a Google Drive document in Firefox, clicking on the Android robot button that is supposed to list apps that can handle the site url, and seeing it doesn't show the selector, but instead opens the page in the Sailfish browser. Perhaps have a setting to make it more passive and try and open the links only if Android doesnt have any options, or to the more extreme end, have there be a dummy app in the Android end that moves the url to the Sailfish side.
