Any protocol that means "fetch this file into the buffer so I can manage it" is probably going to be accomplished by invoking a curl command, which means we could do the same thing through the curl library. And we wouldn't be fetching the file into a temp file, then into the buffer, then, most likely, saving it to a file on disk where you really want it; we would use all the existing machinery such as asking you if you want to download it to disk directly, perhaps in the background. scp: is very likely for downloading files, not casual browsing. We already handle ftp sftp ftps tftp in this manner, I would think I should just add scp to the list.
