Comment 4 for bug 1278437

This bug makes saving URLs to the desktop unusable (e.g. from Firefox). In addition, Nautilus crashes if moving multiple files at once if the .desktop file contains certain types of URLs.

Steps to reproduce crash:

  * save this as test.desktop on the Ubuntu desktop:

[Desktop Entry]
Encoding=UTF-8
Name=test
Type=Link
URL=https://www.google.com/contacts/?hl=en&tab=mC#contacts/group/40/Directory
Icon=text-html
Name[en_US]=test

  * create an empty directory on the Ubuntu desktop
  * use the mouse to draw a box around these two icons and then move them together to another place on the desktop
