Something like that might work? I don't know. I immediately think of "about:blank". More generally, I'm sure there are a lot of URL corner cases that I'm not familiar with (for example, today I discovered that Firefox supports bookmarks that start with "data:.."!). On top of that, I don't know what subset of those URLs the chrome.bookmarks API does and does not support. It'd be nice if an API could help me solve that so I'm not just blindly sending URLs at chrome.bookmarks.create, hoping Chrome is okay with it. I can check in the callback to see if the create succeeded or not, but I'd like to have a fighting chance before attempting to create a bookmark.
