I've run into this bug today.

I've read sensible-browser's code before reading this bug report and
came to the same conclusion as Chris.

sensible-browser is currently broken because if it detects a Gnome
desktop, it directly invokes gnome-www-browser but doing this actually
*bypasses* what the user configures in "System > Preferences > Preferred
Applications".

Bypassing the user's preferences is NOT sensible.
