Details

Weave currently syncs wyciwyg:// URLs. These should have the wyciwyg://0/ part stripped before syncing, leaving the real URL.
Flags: blocking-weave1.0?
STR?  I can't remember the last time I saw a wyciwyg URL in the wild...
Unfortunately, I have no idea how I got the wyciwyg:// URL in the first place - it was a tab I hadn't looked at for ages, amongst ~50 others, and session restored several times. I haven't been able to reproduce it since.

Regardless, it'd be nice if Weave didn't sync such URLs as-is (or even at all?).
It would be, yes.  Targeting for 1.1.

From another bug, here's a page that will trigger a wyciwyg:// url to sync - http://people.mozilla.org/~jgriffin/test1/page1.html

Per discussion earlier, we're just going to ignore wyciwyg. The alternative would be to use uri fixup, but as my argument went, since there's nothing cached on the remote client, it's not worth it.
