The OP was not concerned with the menus; his problem was that the icon
on the panel now opens Firefox instead of Mozilla. That is easily
changed, as someone commented, with the Preferred Applications tool.

Please don't be silly. Given the amount of work that goes into offering
choice for the user and making things easier, it's absurd to suggest
that they want to make things more difficult for users.

The correct answer is that this was done to reduce clutter on the menus.
I still do not agree with that choice, and I think it is a mistake...
but the motivation was to help users, not harm them.
