Steps to reproduce:

0.  [x] Select https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/profile-manager-create-remove-switch-firefox-profiles#:~:text=Type-,about%3Aprofiles,-into%20the%20address
    > about:profiles
0.  [x] Invoke context menu.


Actual results:

It did not appear to be recognized as a URI, despite being valid *and* visitable from Firefox.


Expected results:

It should be treated as any other URI would – the schema should be irrelevant. I think this is just a RegEx nonconformity issue.
