Isn't the dialog shown a dialog of your operating system?
Wondering on which systems Firefox is registered as an application handling PDF files...

"open with" is an OS-provided file picker on Linux. I don't know why you wouldn't be able to select Firefox in it, but it's not our fault. :-)
On Windows, it's a list we implement (using Windows' APIs).
Either way, there is an entry in the dropdown for "Preview in Firefox" - why do we need to be in the "open with" list as well?
Going to mark this as wontfix because of the previous paragraph.

I'm really sorry. I should have read better. You mean the download / open with dialog, not the preferences. Reopening.
