           Summary: MHTML files should be loadable from all schemes
                    considered local, not just file:
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 528+ (Nightly build)
          Platform: Unspecified
        OS/Version: Unspecified
            Status: NEW
          Keywords: GoogleBug, InChromiumBugs
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: WebCore Misc.
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
        ReportedBy: gspencer at chromium.org


In MainResourceLoader::continueAfterContentPolicy and in MHTMLArchive::create, there are tests to make sure that we don't load remote html archives.  Both of these tests use KURL.isLocalFile(), which only checks to see if the scheme of the URL is "file:".

This is fine as a first approximation, but since the SchemeRegistry has the extensible mechanism shouldTreatURLSchemeAsLocal(), we should use that instead, since on some platforms we would like to be able to register non-file schemes as being local.
