Sorry if this is still unclear (i have to rework the README, i know). My
handler still doesn't create defaults in the config by itself (the
defaults are there, but they won't show up in about:config). You just
have to create the config keys to override the defaults with your own
values. This will hopefully be fixed in a future version.

In general, there is no way. But for my handler in particular, you can
check if you got the file /usr/lib/mozilla/components/ed2kprotocol.js
available. If it's there, the handler should be correctly installed.

Another place to check for is the component viewer, that's accessed by
the Tools -> Web Development -> Component Viewer menu option. Search for
a component called "@mozilla.org/network/protocol;1?name=ed2k". If it's
there, the handler should be running.
