Hi Folks,
Does anyone have the ssh protocol handler actually working inside a
recent version of firefox (recent means at least version 24)?

I'm referring to the ability to click a 'ssh://foo.example.com' type
link inside a web page, and have firefox correctly pass it off to an
ssh client to connect to foo.example.com.

I've googled this to death, and none of the solutions work.  Most
recent one was to add the following new config option (set to true):
network.protocol-handler.expose.ssh

thanks
