and e2dk or whatever. A path is external if a) it begins with mailto: b)
method: followed by a slash. method is loosely defined as a sequence of
any characters but slash. This will evaluate  a Drupal path
foor:bar/this/that external. However  trackerpage/http://whatever has a
slash before the : so it will be an internal URL.

This very simple patch lets you add external URLs to your menu or
wherever, 'cos I patched url() itself.
Please consider for 4.6.

Too naive, IMO. Needs ftp, nntp, irc, aim, blah blah blah.
