Firebird with mozex is indeed pretty sweet. I spend a lot of time using a TWiki at work, and the ability to edit large text areas in xemacs rather than a text box is sanity-saving.

Mozex also lets you customise the handling of things like mailto: URIs, etc.

Wow! That is very cool - I just set it up to use Evolution for email
and Emacs for textareas. Works perfectly!
