-----------------------------------------------------------------

Yes, we just recently removed the "strict" property from the trunk, since we 
removed the last feature than depended on it. It is not clear if this should be 
controlled by a property, since it does open a security hole in the general 
case, but we can implement the capability first before deciding how to control 
it.

Should this target 1.4.0?

> In certain cases it might be desirable to override built-in URLStreamHandlers 
> with services provided by bundles. As of now, the spec doesn't allow this 
> (see 11.3.2 ff) but it might in the future. Furthermore, it looks like other 
> implementations are less strict on this issue as we are. For now, the best 
> one can do is to put handlers in the classpath of the framework and make them 
> available via the java.protocol.handler.pkgs properties. This way, one can 
> override the built-in handlers but needs control over the jvm (which is not 
> the best solution). 
> It should be possible to add an option to felix that will register handlers 
> that proxy the built-in ones but prefer registered URLStreamHandler services 
> if there is one available for a given schema.
