Excellent.

I’ve dug into this a bit and I think that’s actually a valid URL as
far as Emacs is concerned. I’m not sure what protocol it’s trying to
use, but it matches the form file://hostname/filename. I assume the
freeze you see is it doing a lookup and if left long enough it will
time out (although it’s an extraordinarily long timeout if true).
I’ll push this to master now.
