I did this too, except I simply redefined `jde-file-to-url' in my .emacs. Would it be straightforward to make that format string a user variable?
That workaround will soon be unnecessary.
In general, emacs-w3m was not allowing file://localhost/ URLs, even though command-line w3m did. I have reported this as a problem to the emacs-w3m list. Thanks to quick work by Katsumi Yamaoka, this problem has been fixed. The fix should appear in the next release of emacs-w3m, or you might be able to dig up a patch from the emacs-w3m mailing list archive.
Cheers,
Charles
