 There are loads of protocols that people may need to support.

 Currently esc_url() obliterates urls that don't match the allowed list
 _before_ it reaches the 'clean_url' filter.

 This means I can't put tel: or callto: links in a menu via the admin.

 The attached patch adds in some more useful protocols and makes the array
 filterable to cover all the protocols listed on
