 When Tor Browser is set as the default browser on OS X, and isn't already
 open, and I click on a link, it doesn't open that link. Once it has
 launched, it opens subsequent links.

 A simple workaround is to never close Tor Browser, or to click on the link
 again after it finishes opening.

 I think this happens because the "open" event (containing the link) gets
 sent to Tor Launcher, which doesn't send it on to Tor Browser.

 This happens in both Tor Browser 5 and Tor Browser 5.5.
