xdg-open can't handle this, so work around with the following command (suggested by Vincent Povirk): gtk-launch `xdg-mime query default x-scheme-handler/http`

I'd suggest to simply open the default start page in that case. That's what iexplore does when there are no arguments.

That's the intent. We don't know what the default start page is for the user's default browser, but it should open it when started with no arguments.

I don't mean the default page for the Unix browser, the behavior is apparently not guaranteed in that case. I mean get the default page configured on the Windows side, and open that. This way we don't need to worry about what the Unix browser will do with no arguments.
So, we'd just load winehq.org? Seems pretty weird to me.
I think it's reasonable to expect that a browser will open when its desktop file is called with no arguments. Whether it loads to its default start page is unimportant.

You can open the default search page instead.

It's reasonable to expect that winebrowser will open, yes. That's precisely what's broken if we simply pass through to the Unix browser, so providing a default argument seems like an obvious fix. I don't see any benefit in adding complexity to try to make the Unix browser use its default page instead of ours.

The program in question loads the value of HKCR/htmlfile/shell/open/command and calls it with no arguments. If I change that to something other than iexplore, the behaviour is left up to that program. So I'm not sure that just following iexplore's behaviour is necessarily appropriate.
