    <thetext>In &quot;5.8.2 Custom scheme and content handlers&quot;:

&quot;url

    The URL of the page that will handle the requests.&quot;

Actually, it&apos;s a template from which the URI will be built.

(speaking of which, it might be a good idea to use the {} syntax that people may know from URI templates)</thetext>

Status: Partially Accepted
Change Description: see diff given below
Rationale: I&apos;ve vaguely tried to make the text better, so this seems a bit like splitting hairs.

It&apos;s not clear what you mean regarding URI templates. What would the syntax be? %s is a very commonly used syntax for this kind of thing, so I figured people would be familiar with it already.</thetext>

Check-in comment: It&apos;s not the actual URL used, it&apos;s a string used to get that URL.
