I'm wrong.  This bug reports this issue

	https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/rhythmbox/+bug/62430

and it has been fixed so you can now do:

	rhythmbox-client --play-uri=http://minnesota.publicradio.org/tools/play/streams/the_current.pls

in gutsy.  It seems like a mailcap entry like:

audio/x-mp3; rhythmbox-client --play-uri='%s'; description="MP3 audio"; test=test -n "$DISPLAY"; nametemplate=%s.mp3
audio/x-scpls; rhythmbox-client --play-uri='%s'; description="MP3 ShoutCast playlist"; test=test -n "$DISPLAY"; nametemplate=%s.pls

_should_ fix this, but it doesn't seem to work for me just yet.
