I hope it can be fixed soon, then!

It doesn't seem to improve the situation much, unfortunately:

  $ export XDG_UTILS_DEBUG_LEVEL="2"
  $ export BROWSER="galeon --new-tab"
  $ xdg-open 'http://debian.org'
  /usr/bin/xdg-open: line 455: galeon --new-tab: command not found
  xdg-open: no method available for opening 'http://debian.org'

Needless to say, the direct command works flawlessly:

  $ galeon --new-tab 'http://debian.org'
