Configure more protocols for the Rich Text Link dialog box

Issue

The Rich Text widget in CQ5 does not allow links other than http://, ftp://, and mailto://.

Solution

In your component dialog configuration, create a node/property structure similar to the following. (See the sample crx app attached below.)
*text  cq:Widget
  name	name	String	./text	
  xtype	xtype	String	richtext	
  hideLabel	hideLabel	Boolean	true	
  *linkbrowseConfig	linkbrowseConfig	nt:unstructured		
    protocols	String[]	['file://']
