> The current href validation causes several issues, e.g., MSHARED-609, or just the fact that we are not able to properly validate valid links/hrefs because there is a too broad variety of schemes and styles. We can use at most {{java.net.URI}}, but still HTML's {{href}} is far more permissive. At the end, we drop valid values like {{ssh://}}, {{sftp://}}, {{smb://}}, {{s3://}}, and many more without even telling the user.
> We shall stop doing that and simply pass the value as-is, the {{href}} is now at the discretion of the site author.
