The problem is what happens with downloaded files through Firefox. If I
actually try to open that link in Firefox -- not just do "okular
http://whatever" -- then, according to ps, the actual command line that's
executed is:
    okular file:///tmp/file%20with%20spaces.pdf -caption

The error message that I get in Okular is then "Cannot open
file:///tmp/file%2520with%2520spaces.pdf"

In other words, when the file:// URL is sent to Okular in this way, the percent
signs get double-escaped and the file can't be opened.
