"Open Link With" is indeed great for routing between different apps, but the problem remains that within Firefox you currently no longer have any choice of what to do with the link – it'll always open the full browser and open a new tab first.
Previously,
1. you had the choice of activating the "tab queue" system for links opened with Firefox, i.e. the URLs would then only be saved in a list in the background instead of launching the full browser.
2. when sharing an URL with Firefox, you had the aforementioned choice of "actually open the link", "bookmark it", or "use Firefox Sync to send the URL to some other Firefox instance in your Sync account". The latter two choices happened in the background, so you didn't have to wait for the full browser UI+engine to start first, the page to load, etc. etc.
