Doesn't that also exclude hosts with one-character names? It's a rare
situation, of course...
I think it's better to handle file:/// URLs explicitly in the
url-file.el code. They always specify a local file. So it should only
ask for the local filename handlers in that case. Would there be any
situation where that's not appropriate?
