Firefox preview of feeds containing audio podcasts do not show the full list of subscribe options

When I click a feed subscribe link I get the Firefox preview page and a drop down box of subscription options.

When this feed is a feed of text-based articles I get a full list of all subscription options including Google.

When this feed is a podcast feed I do have the full list of options available for text-based articles, only Live bookarks and Winamp.

This may be by design because not all feed readers are designed to work with podcasts; however, Google Reader can play audio podcasts and this is what I wish to use to subscribe to audio feeds.

Podcast feed example: http://www.geeknewscentral.com/podcast.xml

Can this be changed somehow so that Google is included in the subscription options for podcasts or do I need to submit an Firefox enhancement request?

Thanks for your help.

Images attached of subscribing to text or audio feeds. Google not available in second instance.
