  I would contribute.

  I did manually set XFCE's firefox launch buttons to run "apulse
firefox" instead of firefox directly, I could also patch
/usr/share/applications/firefox-esr.desktop to do the same, but I'd like
to devise a way just installing apulse would set everything up for users
automatically in the post-install script.  This way people (especially
not technically minded ones) would have less fiddling to do to customize
their systems.  And I'd bet even non techies would appreciate sparing
themselves some time just to let their system behave in a sane way.

  But let's start with a simple howto first.

  Where shall we coordinate our effort, push our contributions to?
