Description

Steps to reproduce:
1. launch fdb. e.g. fdb http://app.com

Actual Results:
firefox, if found on path, is always used as browser within fdb session

Expected Results:
fdb allows configuration of the desired browser via system property rather than defaulting to firefox as found within flash.tools.debugger.DefaultDebuggerCallbacks
e.g. java $VMARGS "-Dapplication.home=$FLEX_HOME" "-Ddefault.browser=epiphany" -jar "$FLEX_HOME/lib/fdb.jar" "$@"

Workaround (if any):Remove any existing "firefox" from path and add a "firefox" symbolic link to your path targeting desired browser
