The 'open location' handler dies after doing the displays. Period.
I tried both 'return' and 'error' at the end to diagnose the behavior.
No change.

I'm not sure that 'open location' is a valid handler name, but the arrival of a .webloc in the 'open' handler seems to call it. (But you can't write 'my open location ...' because 'open location' seems not to be a valid handler name.)

I think there is no work-around for this ... the open handler is now just a pomme de rue.
