wvengen updated CB-14188:
-------------------------
    Description: 
Several times I've found myself wanting to tell inAppBrowser whether it can 
open a link in the embedded webview or using the system web browser. It would 
be great if there's a callback _before_ loading a page (loadstart is too late 
there), where I can tell inAppBrowser to load the page or not.

CB-14013 introduced AllowedSchemes, but excluded the use of http and https. -It 
would be useful to allow intercepting http and https links, e.g. to decide 
whether to open the link in the system web browser or not.- At first I thought 
this mechanism could be used, but because of the asynchronous nature of Cordova 
callbacks, this didn't work out, and I added a beforeload callback. See comment 
for an example.

I've submitted a PR -(my approach would be to generate a regexp based on 
AllowedSchemes and match the URL on that, instead of the current if logic)-.
