URL dispatcher does open application on a U7 session already. So I'm not
sure what the issue would be there. I don't think we need xdg-open for
that. Which cases are you seeing it not work?

Title:
url-dispatcher should use xdg-open as a fallback if not in Touch
Status in url-dispatcher package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
On our standard desktop product with unity7, url-dispatcher does not
work.
It would be nice if it did, as we start having pieces of Touch come
over to the desktop, convergence style.
For example, unity8-greeter has support for opening apps inside the
session (via launcher or indicators). It uses a combination of a
system daemon and url-dispatcher (inside the session) to do this. But
this doesn't work on unity7.
In this case, I could patch unity8-greeter to do something different
for unity7, but it seems like it would be nicer to make url-dispatcher
a little more general.
If it's not in a Touch environment, the url-dispatcher service could
just launch xdg-open for each URL it gets.
