Details

RFC6920 (https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6920) defines a URI scheme (ni:///) that is used by the sub-resource integrity spec (http://www.w3.org/TR/SRI/).

Currently these URIs are supported by nsIURI but everything other than the scheme ends up in the "path" section.

The patch on 992096 already parses these URIs but some of that code probably belongs in nsIURI so that future features could make use of it.
Sub resource integrity no longer uses these URIs and instead uses the simple hash-source format that CSP Level 2 uses.

I'll leave this bug open in case someone else needs this in the future, but I'm not planning to work on this anymore.
