1582606 - Allow data: url on GeckoView Example

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(GeckoView :: GeckoViewExample, enhancement, P3)

Description

[Makoto Kato [:m_kato]]

Actually, GVE doesn't support data: url. When debugging Gecko for DOM or editor, I sometimes use data: url to show simple Web content example.

loadUri uses content principal, so to use data: url, it needs LOAD_FLAGS_FORCE_ALLOW_DATA_URI.

James says we have this load flag. We just need to expose it to GVE.

I'd quite like to be able to do this for Browsertime-related stuff. I can't inject anything into about:blank with enough control. I actually want this more generally; does GV respect the underlying security.data_uri.block_toplevel_data_uri_navigations pref if it's set in the profile?

Maybe yes, but when url has space, GVE tries to browse google.com since this detects as search word.

If data: url has space, it doesn't be recognized as data: url on GVE.
