It definitely helps a bit : the gnome settings for the default browser 
is stored in gconf, in the /desktop/gnome/applications/browser/exec key.

You can see what it's set to with :
gconftool-2 --get /desktop/gnome/applications/browser/exec
(here it says: epiphany-browser)

and set it to what you want with something like (one line):
gconftool-2
  --type=float
  --set /desktop/gnome/applications/browser/exec your_browser
