Got it! It was a bizarre consequence of creating Balsa's UniqueApp with a NULL startup_id. Using a startup_id of "balsa" fixes it (both the status request and the mailto handler), but with who-knows-what other unintended consequences. Can anyone explain the role of the startup_id?
Freedesktop.org has some discussion of the startup process <URL:http://standards.freedesktop.org/startup-notification-spec/startup-notification-latest.txt>, which states that the startup_id should be globally unique, and which contains a suggested format. I'm testing that now--seems to work.
