Comment:

 In a patch for this, I'd like to see the allowed protocols be available in
 JS and checked when items are added using the links section in the
 available items panel (currently it just checks for empty strings or
 `http://`, the default value, and prevents adding the item and adds a
 visual indicator that the option is invalid).

 Not sure whether we could/should add validation for when links are changed
 in existing items, since the other fields there also get validated only
 when savee/previewed/on the server side, but adding better validation on
 the add-item field would be a nice improvement.
