I should note that I'm on kubuntu 14.04 and the version of xdg-open I'm
using is 1.0.2.

Title:
  xdg-open doesn't allow more than 64 characters after the protocol://
  part

Status in xdg-utils package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  This may actually not be a bug I guess but I still think it's a bit
  strange.

  Our application is using quite a lot more than 64 characters there so
  I'm wondering whether we're breaking some standard (I can't find
  anything about what the length can be).

  But at least our problem is that our application does not launch
  properly which may be our own fault but in case it's not I wanted to
  check whether this 64 character limitation is actually based on some
  specification somewhere or whether this is  just a random decision and
  if so, whether this length should perhaps be increased?
