There are also problem with other application:
open a website in konqueror and then choose
File->Open with Mozilla Firefox

That will NOT open the URL in Firebox but a local copy of the html file. You 
can imagine the bad results.
At least with this thread, I found the cause:
In the .desktop file, the line
Exec=firefox
should be changed to
Exec=firefox %u
and the URL opening work again.
BTW: I had no problems with current Sarge to do this with kmenuedit.
See also bug #290132

However, doesn't that somehow prove that kmenuedit and the %u parameter works 
as expected?
And indeed: the problem only comes up with the "open with..." menu item. If 
you simple click to open the file, be it kate or kwrite, it just works.
I somewhat doubt that the cause for this is the menu system...
