• r27565 preparatory refactoring
• r27567 add button to launch the native client via a URI (run update-mime-database after installing the updated desktop files)
• r27569 connection file download link

I think the URI launch is much better than using the connection file, but both are there.

@mjharkin: does that work for you?

From a quick test looks very good, thanks. I'll give it a bit more testing in the next few days. only tested connection files so far.

For windows /win32/xpra.iss will need to be updated with custom protocol renaming.

Also would be nice to have connect.html port set to 80/443 based on window.location.protocol if not explicitly set in url

Ooops, thanks. Done in r27573.

Ah, right, I always test with high ports and those do get populated...
Does r27574 work for you?

Doesn't seem to work and I think maybe this is more generic mjharkin/Xpra@a0ede78
