If I understand the status of Trac tricket #1563 and the dev discussions here then ajlyon's patch is implemented and working well (at least with non-local links) and it all hangs on the suitably relaxed URI regex or a whitelist for the respective protocols of other apps. Why is this not happening? A design decision? Or a simple matter of priorities before the 3.0 final – with a view that this may be possible in one of the next small updates? Would a pooling of possible candidates for a whitelist help? Appreciate news on this. kithairon

I'm based in a department of architecture and I find OneNote invaluable for this sort of thing, while Zotero provides the backbone of retrieving old notes based on subject, tags, author, etc. I also designate in Zotero items which have yet to have linked pages to OneNote.
In the meantime, I just paste the OneNote URL into Zotero notes items.
Once this gets accepted it'll be in the next release. I've never seen any indication that anyone had concerns about this, so I'd expect it to be accepted. For the record, the currently included list of accepted protocols is:
