-JIRA Client as the Default HTTP\[S\] Handler- |
The idea is to make JC catch all http:// and https:// links and forward the non-issue ones to the browser. This is achievable one way or another, but very harsh: JC is launched for any URL whatsoever, it must know or figure out the user's preferred browser. Not humble.

The schemes:
- almworks-jc-http, almworks-jc-https (JIRA Client HTTP/HTTPS)
- almworks-dz-http, almworks-dz-https (Deskzilla HTTP/HTTPS)
The URL http://\_ (http://_)jira.mycompany.com/browse/FOO-123_ becomes _almworks-jc-http://\_ (http://_)jira.mycompany.com/browse/FOO-123_, and so on.
