Package: dillo
Version: 0.8.3-1
Severity: wishlist

'dillo' can't handle 'mailto' URLs, so running:

        dillo mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]

...doesn't work.  At the bottom of the screen it says:

        ERROR: unsupported protocol

It'd be better if 'dillo' did email.  Shouldn't be much speed penalty or
code complexity to it, since the code would only have to call an 
external program.

Why this is wanted.  Often I use 'dillo' like so:

        BROWSER=dillo querybts -w dillo

...as it's faster than any Mozilla based browser, and the BTS has no
Java or weird HTML -- it's ideal for 'dillo'. Then I'd click on an
interesting bug, and maybe have a comment for it. At the top of every
bug there's a 'mailto:' URL for a "one click" comment.  So I cut n'
paste the 'mailto:' URL, or else reload the page in Moz, yech.
