Problems opening url with exo-open --launch WebBrowser

Hi,

using:

exo-open --launch WebBrowser http://xfce.org

fails at the moment. The url tried to be opened by the browser is "http://xfce.org" including the quote, which the browser doesn't manage well.

Not exactly sure if this is the right way to open an url (exo-open <url>) works fine but it's the way exo-open is called in xfbrowser4 and the manpage says it should pass the parameters to the browser.

It breaks xfbrowser4 and all apps using xfbrowser4 (xfce4-weather-plugin I think).

Cheers,

By the way, this is exo 0.3.101 + the patch to ignore unknown parameters (r29942), which might be related.
