Yes, it's recommended way, especially when we upgrade Xfce n version
to n+1 version.

I think it's a "feature" from GTK, in Xfce 4.10 shortcuts behaviour
was rewritten to follow GTK2's reference.

Try in console: update-desktop-database -q

If nothing appends. You can open Thunar, and go to
/usr/local/share/applications, search for firefox.desktop file (or
something similar).
Right click to open this file, and select "Open with", and create
launcher item (you can even select a panel).

If .desktop file doesn't exist, you must follow "old way":
- select panel, and right click
- select "Add new items"
- select "Launcher"
Then go to properties, in command box add this line
exo-open --launch WebBrowser %u

You can also add icon, and comment.
