cut and paste not working after xdg-open "org-protocol://store-link?url=

Hi people,


First: `xdg-open "org-protocol://store-link?url="" from a terminal.

Then `M-x org-insert-link` in emacs, or not (it makes no difference).

Then cut-and-paste from non-emacs-application (e.g., Kde's Konsole, or Firefox) to emacs.

When doing `C-y` what it pastes is "URL", not what I have copied from Firefox.

For it to work again: one cut-and-paste operation from emacs to emacs.

Then it works again until the next time.

Doing `C-k` is enough, but it's still cumbersome.


My compositor is Wayland. It was like this, before, with `emacs-pgtk` 28.0.50.

It is still like that with: GNU Emacs 29.0.50 (build 1, x86_64-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 3.24.31, cairo version 1.16.0) of 2022-01-26

System is debian sid upgraded just before.


Thanks,

Chris


PS: some XY-problem:

What sort of argument to pass to `org-protocol-store-link`.

When I do `(org-protocol-parse-parameters "url="" t '(:url :title))` it works.

It works when I do `xdg-open "org-protocol://store-link?url="" />` from a terminal.

But why is there a `nil` here:

https://github.com/emacs-mirror/emacs/blob/19dcb237/lisp/org/org-protocol.el#L467

And why is it working at all from `xdg-open "org-protocol://store-link?url="" with a `nil` in that position?


Note: `(org-protocol-store-link "U/T")` works, `(org-protocol-store-link "url="" doesn't work. Produces link `[[url="" instead of `[[U][T]]`.
