True, but you can't have it both ways.  Either ',' characters are a
part of the URL, or they are not.  And your idea of dumping
mozilla-launcher altogether will also break this case as well.

Besides which, I would say that any user doing that is relying on both
undefined and unexpected behavior.  The defined way of doing this
would be "MOZILLA_NEWTYPE=new-tab firefox http://site/".
