In the Mozilla browser when the mailto: uri is selected it should parse the
email address and it's parameters for subject, cc, bcc and body etc. as per
http://www.ianr.unl.edu/internet/mailto.html
and open the mail client with the email address and subject etc. parsed into
their own fields.

Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.7.5) Gecko/20041217 does do
this as I would expect as do several version of IE (but who cares.)

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. visit http://krypton.mnsu.edu/~j3gum/test.html
2. click on the "test" link.
3. browser should bring up the mozilla email client.


Actual Results:

Expected Results:  
To: nobody@nohost.org
Subject: test
The testcase WORKSFORME with a Linux Gtk2 build from today.
This was a regression, upgrade to a current trunk build or wait for the
forthcoming 1.8beta1 release.
