            Bug ID: 266903
           Summary: Add "lbry" to the registerProtocolHandler allowlist
           Product: WebKit
           Version: Safari 17
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: WebKit Misc.
          Assignee: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
          Reporter: ben at yocto.com

# Steps to reproduce:

I opened the console and entered the following line:

`navigator.registerProtocolHandler('lbry','https://example.com/lbry/%s');`

# Actual results:

The console returned the following error that the function does not exist.

# Expected results:

In Safari, `registerProtocolHandler` is not supported yet. In other browsers using WebKit, where `registerProtocolHandler` is supported, the function should return `undefined` and the browser should ask if I wanted to add this protocol handler.

I have created an issue and a pull request on the HTML repository of WHATWG: https://github.com/whatwg/html/issues/9016 and https://github.com/whatwg/html/pull/9017. Before WHATWG wants to add lbry to the allowlist, I need 2 implementers being interested and also have bugs filed, so that is the reason I file a bug here.
