Why does it have to pass the whole string? The settings://system/ part
is only interesting to the URL dispatcher so it can find out what to
launch. It'd make the application code nicer if we only had to take the
information which is interesting to us - the name of the panel. As a
bonus we already handle this.

Not sure how it interacts with the single instance stuff though.
