363654 - .url files opened via File:Open don't open/don't open properly on the 1.8.0 branch

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Camino Graveyard :: General, defect)

For some reason, 1.0.x won't properly open .url files from File: Open (drag-drop works fine); some don't open, and some try to load only the path part.  Works fine on 18branch and trunk.

For 1.0.4, we're just going to disable .url in the filter for File:Open.

codewise r=me, though if someone can figure out why it's broken in the first place that'd obviously be better.

Asking for sr on this 7-char patch in case we need to take it for 1.0.4 instead of a real fix.

Well, that kinda sucks.

Patch checked in on 1.8.0 branch, leaving bug open for a proper fix (if we get one in time).

Insofar as we landed *a* fix, this bug is FIXED.  It's not the fix we wanted, but it's all this dead-end branch turned out to get.  Onward and upward.
