But it seems that, from the U8 greeter, you'd only be sending application:// and appid:// URLs though, right? Those are both built in.

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.
