I use IIP, which is an anonymized IRC network.  it can be found at
http://www.invisiblenet.net/iip/ .  I have always used Chatzilla to access this
network without problem.  it uses the /squery command to communicate with it's
name service called trent.  the format is "/squery trent identify MYPASS" .  I
just downloaded the new mozilla nightly, and now whenever I use squery to issue
multi-word commands to trent it drops words after the first.  Another example is
I can issue "/squery trent help" , but I cannot type "/squery trent help nickreg"

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.  Set up IIP
2.  Try to identify with trent as per IIP's directions
3.  it doesn't work.

Actual Results:  
Chatzilla droped neccasary parts of my /squery .

Expected Results:  
find out what changed so that I can issue multii-word /squery's.

Could you try "/squery trent :identify MYPASS" (note the colon) and see if that
works? (same goes for any other multi-word command, put a colon before the start
of the command)  Not sure why it worked in older versions, though.

Ha! Found a work-around.
Using "/squery Trent :identify <pass>" still throws away the password as an
extra parameter.
For now you can use "/quote squery Trent :identify <pass>". In fact, I don't
know if you still need the colon before identify, it might work with out it. I
definitely works with it.
Someone fix this stupid bug!

Could you try this in a newer version of Chatzilla, using 0.9.47 I can't get it
to drop any parameters. You will probably still need the colon.

Attachment: Fixes /squery by adding 'commands' to the alias list for 'rest'

I also re-arranged the list to make it easier to read, and removed a duplicate
"reason" entry.
