Thanks, that works. However, it's conceptionally not quite true, because data 
urls "inherit" the network class from the embedding document. I. e. they 
should have all right if contained within a local document, and be subject to 
the http restrictions if contained within an http document.

That means the following snippet always displays a warning dialog, even if it 
is contained in a local document:

<a href="data:text/html,<a href="file:/etc/passwd">Peek at 
passwd</a>">Data url with link to local file</a>

There's no sensible solution to this, is there? I'm leaving the bug open so I 
don't forget about it.
