Strictly not a Python question, but I wanted to know from the experience of others in this list.
Is this is valid ftp url?
file://ftp.example.com/blah.txt (an ftp URL)
My answer is no. When we have the scheme specifically mentioned as file:// it is no point in considering it as ftp url (which should start with ftp://).
If I go ahead with this assumption and fix a bug in stdlib, I am introducing a regression because at the moment the above is considered a ftp url.
