transmission-gtk requires preceding slash

[tbtrocks]

I have transmission-gtk.desktop associated with magnet links. 'xdg-open "magnet:/..."' works but 'xdg-open "magnet:..."' does not work. tracker.example.com.se provides magnet links in the second format. Can transmission be made to not require the slash?

Non-Working Example:

$ xdg-open "magnet:?xt=urn:btih:b2e2cbb742754eb5a4ec14a5e71d0727ab2d7a90&dn=Workaholics+Season+1+Complete+720p&tr=udp%3A%2F%2Ftracker.openbittorrent.com%3A80&tr=udp%3A%2F%2Ftracker.tracker.example.com%3A80&tr=udp%3A%2F%2Ftracker.istole.it%3A6969&tr=udp%3A%2F%2Ftracker.ccc.de%3A80"

Working Example (preceding slash added):

$ xdg-open "magnet:/?xt=urn:btih:b2e2cbb742754eb5a4ec14a5e71d0727ab2d7a90&dn=Workaholics+Season+1+Complete+720p&tr=udp%3A%2F%2Ftracker.openbittorrent.com%3A80&tr=udp%3A%2F%2Ftracker.tracker.example.com%3A80&tr=udp%3A%2F%2Ftracker.istole.it%3A6969&tr=udp%3A%2F%2Ftracker.ccc.de%3A80"

Isn't everyone else having this problem too?
