Steps to reproduce:

select uTorrent as torrent application and then try to open a torrent by clicking within moz on the url.
You can find such urls at https://nyaa.si/?f=0&c=0_0

Actual results:

the application take each block of text between space as a token to open and so the invocation fail.

This is new in the 72.0.x branch, it doesn't occur with former releases.

Expected results:

before Calling the application, the tokens must be quoted to form a unique argument passed to the application.
