From Bug #26866: wjt: > Note that you might also want to support URIs such as > 'xmpp:smcv@example.com?subscribe' or, more troublingly, > 'aim:goaway?message=bonghits+in+the+hood'. ... smcv: > Yeah, those URIs are more troublesome. My thought was that initially, we'd just > support URIs as nouns (the way the architecture of the Web claims they should > be used) mapping to contacts. > > If we want to support URIs (mis)used as verbs as well, we'd need to add a > separate ActOnURI(s: URI) option that did "something appropriate". > > However, I think URIs as verbs are likely to need rather more UI than the CM > can offer on its own, and contain additional cans of worms that I don't want > blocking the simpler feature. URIs for many (all?) actions shouldn't actually > perform the action, they should just open up appropriate UI to prepare to do it > (e.g. fill in the message as a draft, or whatever, so the user just has to > press Send to confirm). with more discussion near <https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=26866#c14>.
