    I can confirm that this is really an important feature request. For example we want to use skype:// and whatsapp:// links within the webview. The problem is, that loadstart acts async and so even a workaround in the event to prevent loading the protocol as page is not possible.
    
    A possible and safe solution (from my point of view) could be a new "beforeloadstart" event which allows to return false and take the url parameter for custom handling. The url should not be prefixed by http:// like currently in loadstart. So we can introduce our own custom logic in JS without hacking the plugin.
    
    What do you think?
