[Bug 1384361] Re: Clicking on google "intent" url leads to error pages

 

I can reliably reproduce with the steps in the description. I guess
google generates intent:// URLs because it thinks it’s talking to an
android device, which is very unfortunate. Not sure what’s the best way
to address that. Maybe a UA override for google.com, or a custom
protocol handler to intercept intent:// URLs (or even intercepting them
at the navigationRequested level).
