I don't think that always hiding output for any browser is a good idea.

xdg-open is supposed to be cross-desktop (GNOME, XFCE, KDE, etc.).

Maybe a better fix is to use "gio" if available, or fallback on xdg-open otherwise? But gio is specific to GNOME no? What if the user has GNOME and KDE installed?
