I did not investigate issue in detail, but apparently xdg-open treats
all http links as "text/html". "xdg-open http:" starts Firefox.

I edit my ~/.mailcap much more frequently then I build all suckless
tools combined. That happens mostly because I stumble across file
formats that I didn't need to deal with before, or simply didn't need to
define. I expect that if I would be using soap, it would end up being
the most frequently compiled software on my system. This is an easy
shot, given that your design suggests hardcoding URLs, which, given the
nature of modern web, would lead to very frequent changes.
