Description:
Currently the supported protocols in the external links parser are hardcoded
(function replaceExternalLinks in includes\parser.php). Please make them
configurable for the administrator so that he/she can add necessary protocols (I
added file:\\ and notes:\\ in our installation).
Version: 1.3.x

Both REL1_4 and HEAD have a URL_PROTOCOLS define in Parser.php that can be
expanded to allow for other protocols, markig it as FIXED.
Hacking core source files isn't what we normally mean by configurable. Should be
settable from LocalSettings.php without altering core files to satisfy this bug.
Might be worth tying bug 787 with this, to indicate for each allowed protocol whether it requires a
hostname part (http://example.com/) or not (news:alt.example).

It is now, marking this as FIXED.
