Public bug reported:
The desktop portal constructs an mailto: url with an attachment= but
thunderbird upstream explicitly decided to not allow adding files from
an URL for security reasons.
One can still use the -compose option though, as this patch does.
Test case
---------
* Install the proposed package.
* Log out and back in.
* Set Thunberbird as default client in Gnome Control Panel.
* Open Nautilus and try to attach two files to the same email. They can be
creatively named, it should not break on weird characters.
* Thunderbird should open with the corresponding files attached.
* [For regression testing] Set Evolution as the default.
* Open Nautilus and try to attach two files to the same email. They can be
creatively named, it should not break on weird characters. It only attaches one
file, this is however not a regression.
