633991 - Site link details not opening for chrome://

Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX

(Input :: General, defect)

Description

[Rebecca Billings [:rbillings]]

Viewing individual feedback for chrome:// link has a bad link in the details. Does not repro for about: pages, so it isn't just colons.

1) Release dashboard> Sites> Chrome:// site> individual feedback> [ex: http://input.stage.mozilla.com/en-US/release/sites/theme/48756 ]
2) see footer details> click link to chrome://browser/content/browser.js

expected: link opens
actual: doesn't open

Hm, interesting. Not sure what the expected behavior is here. I thought, putting a chrome URL into a anchor tag works, but I guess not.

Aakash, any words of wisdom on how this link should behave?

Firefox most likely blocks those links from being loaded due to security concerns. There's nothing we can do there other than de-link anything with "about:" and "chrome:" in the front of it. 

Yet, that'll be a lot of work for no real gain. So, I'd rather just leave it alone.
