Bug#660300: when run from a terminal, iceweasel doesn't handle stdin correctly

Package: iceweasel
Version: 10.0.1-1
Severity: minor

When I run Iceweasel from a terminal (by typing the "iceweasel"
command), the standard input is left attached to the terminal.
So, when some helper application (e.g. a textual mailer for the
mailto links) is run, it can detect that it is attached to the
terminal and use it. However not all keys typed in the terminal
reach this application. Perhaps some threads are still grabbing
keys?

Either Iceweasel should avoid interfering with helper applications
it can start or it should redirect the standard input from /dev/null.
