This passes the URL to Launch Services, which figures out which application 
should open it.

This also passes the URL to Launch Services.

This passes the URL to Quicksilver, which has no idea what it means or what to 
do with it. Something like this should work, though:

    tell application "Quicksilver" to open URL 
"qs://preferences#QSTriggersPrefPane”

because Quicksilver knows what to do with the `qs:` URL scheme.

I don’t know if this helps in any way, since I don’t remember the original 
details, but that’s what’s going on.
