I really like this extension mechanism for the web. Unlike, say, registerProtocolHandler, which is relatively widely supported, registerContentHandler allows extensibility for experiencing resources on the web while still remaining on the firm earth of HTTP and the web.
If possible, I'd prefer Firefox move it to Secure Context only rather than remove it. The RSS use case alone is a good and a strong use case! It is very very unfortunate IMO that other browsers have not implemented this capability. I would prefer changing that fact than removing the capability from Firefox. Failing that, I would prefer Firefox maintain this very longstanding, interesting and enriching capability. The ability to grow the amount of content the browser can help the user navigate is an important capability, and nothing else does the job at all like registerContentHandler().
