Both
xdg-open http://google.com
and
gnome-open http://google.com
result in a new Firefox window, with a single "empty" tab.

This is not the expected result - I expect the page to open in a new tab/window. Running
firefox http://google.com
gives the expected result.

Whilst I am seeing the bug under quantal (regression from precise) the packages xdg-utils and libgnome2-0 are the same version in both cases.

"/desktop/gnome/url-handlers/http/command" is set in both cases to "firefox %s"
