Because Org doesn't know squat about URI schemes and uses ad-hoc parsing
and manipulation rather than splicing it all out according to the spec.

Besides, why is three leading slashes even a problem?  IIRC, POSIX says
that any number of leading slashes (except when starting with exactly
two, which are system dependent and are usually interpreted as a UNC
path) should do exactly the same thing as a single slash.
