Bug Description

Currently url-dispatcher only supports handling URLs for which applications have registered as handlers of, directly in url-dispatcher. However, when using Unity 8 on a PC with legacy applications which are registered as handlers of URL schemes via their .desktop files, these applications are not usable as handlers.
