It requires a full path to the file, not the prefix "file://".  The launch
script won't be the right place to add this feature, because it's only for
some OSes.  Rather, the command-line handler will be.  But the most
obvious implementation, wherein you dispatch based on a check whether the
argument is an existing relative file, is a flawed idea, because it
introduces a (for all practical purposes) non-deterministic behavior to
find-url.
