This would allow Revolt to open riot:// mx:// URLs launched from other applications, have .desktop files with links to rooms, and the like. Very likely we want #13 done first.

Surely you'd want mx:// too? matrix-org/matrix-spec-proposals#455

In fact, I'd strongly suggest moving away from riot:// entirely. Most people will want to register a Matrix client on their PCs, and the commonly accepted scheme is mx://.

@Half-Shot: You have a very good point there, thanks for the pointer to the spec. Then Revolt should register itself as handler for the mx:// scheme, and leave riot:// as an implementation detail of issue #13.

Note: According to the proposal on this, you want to use matrix: instead of mx://.
