Thanks Guys, https://git.merproject.org/mer-core/libcontentaction/blob/master/src/doc.h
This seems to have some information about how it all hooks together, and I can see that the sailfish-browser defines a separate .desktop file with a systemd/dbus service to handle its 'open url' action. https://github.com/sailfishos/sailfish-browser/blob/master/open-url.desktop I think for my purposes it's simpler to disable the single-instance-app directive and handle it internally myself, even though launching a new process just to send a dbus method to the existing process seems to be a bit of a convoluted way of doing it.
