Description Lydia Pintscher 2013-09-13 15:35:19 UTC
There are requests to allow entering protocol relative URLs in the URL datatype. We need to discuss this.
Comment 1 Brion Vibber 2013-09-16 15:37:12 UTC
I would recommend STRONGLY against supporting protocol-relative URLs, as they are meaningless without a base URL that's specifically known to be related to the target URL.

(For example, "//google.com/" is more or less meaningless to a document loaded via "file:" or "ms-appx:" or "app:" or ....)
Comment 2 Lydia Pintscher 2013-11-05 20:30:31 UTC
You are right.
