Actually --- errr --- there is nothing to adjust.  The docs are exactly
right. 

This is because of some örfflkjsgs in xdg-open.

No one ever said something about xdg-open.  Org-protocol is supposed to
work with emacsclient:

mattias@helium:~$ emacsclient org-protocol://capture://http%3A%2F%2Forgmode.org


works.
