Could Edit+ be prevented from creating file:// links…?

It’s something that came up earlier this year for us where less educated editors, unaware of what they were doing were creating links to resources they had access to (local drives, mapped network drives etc) so that any testing they did suggesting no problems.

I’m suspecting something like an Edit+ plugin could potentially scan generated / entered HTML and do something?

You could probably do it with a JS Edit+ plugin, but maybe even CSS could do it where it would check the href value and if it starts with “file://” then give it a red border and background style?
