Title:
  Allow to add feeds from the local file system

Status in Ubuntu Shorts App:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Currently, autopilot tests add a feed from www.canonical.com. That's
  bad because it makes the test depend on external resources that we
  don't control, and it also make the tests slow because they have to
  access the internet.

  It would be great if we could add also a feed from the local file
  system, so in the Add feeds screen, instead of entering
  http://www.canonical.com/rss.xml we would enter file:///tmp/rss.xml

  This will simplify the tests a lot. There might be tools to resolve
  http:// and file:// addresses, so this might not be hard to do
  implement, but I'm not sure about that.

  And, there might be people keeping their rss feeds in the local system
  too. I suppose this is not common, but I'm sure this won't be just a
  testability feature, some people will find it useful.
