With "predicate" do you mean URI scheme?

browse-url-handlers ⇒ (("gemini:" . elpher-go) ("gopher:"
. elpher-handler-go) ("about:" . hyperscope-about) ("hyperscope:"
. hyperscope-go) ("e2dk://" . amule-handler))

An alist with elements of the form (REGEXP-OR-PREDICATE . HANDLER).
Each REGEXP-OR-PREDICATE is matched against the URL to be opened
in turn and the first match’s HANDLER is invoked with the URL.

Then -- if URL structure would provide content type, it would work.

Otherwise it is not related to my wish. The URI scheme I wish to use
is `https:' and nothing else.
