[Lynx-dev] support for data: URI scheme, please?

[Ivan Shmakov]

        I wonder, is there a chance to get the data: URI scheme
        supported?

        E. g., when pointed to [1], some browsers will happily display
        “Hello, world!”.

[1] data:text/plain;base64,SGVsbG8sIHdvcmxkIQo=

1. Abstract

    A new URL scheme, "data", is defined.  It allows inclusion of small
    data items as "immediate" data, as if it had been included
    externally.

2. Description

    Some applications that use URLs also have a need to embed (small)
    media type data directly inline.  This document defines a new URL
    scheme that would work like 'immediate addressing'.  The URLs are of
    the form:

                    data:[<mediatype>][;base64],<data>
