Comment (by knutsp):

 I think this looks like a behaviour the browser is responsible for. It
 pastes an URL with a proprietary scheme, only working in that browser on
 the very same computer. WordPress is doing nothing other receive what is
 being pasted.

 So if WordPress could do anything it would something along the line of
 detecting and filtering out such things that could mislead the user into
 thinking it could work on the web.

 The other solution would be to complain about it to the makers of browser
 in question.

 It's bad UX.
