BTW: That won't work. Suppose a user knows, that mozilla-launcher
does a openURL remote command and because of that knowledge, he
makes use of it.

Ie. he calls "firefox http://site/,new-tab" to have http://site/
opened in a new tab. With your patch, this will no longer work.

Because of this, I hesitated to add such a patch myself. And IMO
it's extremely bad style to tamper with user specified parameters.
