Public bug reported:

Behavior:

When you click on an icon in the panel, a command gets executed.  The
user can set this command in the Properties dialog box for the icon.
For the default firefox panel icon, it is "firefox %u".  The %u is a
command substitution of ...something.  What?  The help section 4.5.3.1
Launcher Commands and Locations should say, and it comes up when you
click on "Help" in the properties dialog box for the icon.  However, no
% codes are documented here.

Desired behavior:

They should be.

Description:	Ubuntu 10.04.3 LTS
Release:	10.04

gnome-panel:
  Installed: 1:2.30.2-0ubuntu0.2
  Candidate: 1:2.30.2-0ubuntu0.2
  Version table:
 *** 1:2.30.2-0ubuntu0.2 0
        500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ lucid-updates/main Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
     1:2.30.0-0ubuntu1 0
        500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ lucid/main Packages

It may be that the documentation is in a different package, but they all
get updated together.

Clearly 10.04 isn't going to get updates for something like this, but
the change should be made in the current development version to improve
things going forward.  It will take someone in the know about 15
minutes.

Thanks,
