bug#10297: 23.1; "unimplemented" interactive find-file for urls

[Bastian B]

Hi,

if I try to open a url via C-x C-f I get the message "unimplemented"
in my minibuffer. If I call the find-file function from the
scratch-buffer via elisp the url opens correctly.

The message seems to come from (minibuffer-complete-and-exit) which is
triggered when pressing RET.

Regards

I cannot reproduce this on GNU/Linux using Emacs 23.1, 23.3, or the
current trunk. I did:

emacs -Q -f url-handler-mode
C-x C-f http://www.gnu.org RET

If I try to use TAB completion on URLs, I get an "Unimplemented"
message, which seems entirely reasonable.

I am closing this because I cannot see that there is any bug here.
If you think there is, please reply with a more detailed explanation of
what the problem is.
