It's just that Firefox uses gnome-vfs to access that information.
libnkgnomevfs is not really important. It allows access to gnome-vfs functions to open other kind of URIs (as for example SMB).
In libmozgnome there are only a few other things like the default browser check, setting desktop background things. Basically gconf settings stuff. (Hmm, so most probably clicking on mailto links will be screwed by default when that component is not there but that could be thought of a minor issue).

Well, he wants all features he's interested in. A KDE user might not be
_that_ interested in GNOME integration. But honestly, I don't know what
firefox uses gnomevfs for. And gstreamer also has optional gnome support
compiled in.
