Is there a way, using AppleScript, to determine the identity

Not as far as I know - actually this would a prized find by
many (as currently OS X has a _very-bad-habit_ of reverting
back to IE as it's default browser as soon as the
_user-selected-browser_ goes out of scope - for example, when
you are updating it.)
It seems to be available here:
set res to (do shell script "defaults read
com.apple.LaunchServices 'LSBindingPrefsTypeBindings' | grep
'\"A;????.html\"'")
set xmlname to last word of res
-->"com.omnigroup.OmniWeb"
Can anyone verify?
