Having an option to "remember my choice" is a feature that we want to implement. The code was designed to do this, but we don't have a good way yet to display the preferences to the user so he can change his mind. If you have a given protocol that you want to open on your own machine without warning, and don't mind hacking around, open your "Local State" file in %userprofile%\local settings\application data\google\chrome\User Data. (Assuming you are on windows xp) and search for "protocol_handler". Set your protocol to "false".
