1P_Ben if it helps the argument for reinstating this feature, FileMaker added some protections for this in v19.5.1, back in May (the current version is 19.5.3).
From the release notes:
Security
FileMaker Pro notifies you when an fmp URL is opening a hosted custom app. Choose to open anyway, add the host to your permitted hosts list, or cancel. See Setting permitted hosts and plug-ins preferences in FileMaker Pro Help.This notification is disabled by default. To enable it, open the Preferences dialog box and in the Permitted tab, choose Warn me before an fmp URL opens a file. See FileMaker Pro Help.
To enable this notification for assisted installations, set AI_WARN_FMP_URL in the Assisted Install.txt file. See FileMaker Pro Network Install Setup Guide.
So companies that are concerned about this, can turn on that flag in their deployed installations.
I know that only solves fmp protocol handlers, but a list of "Allowed handlers" in 1Password prefs would handle that well, IMO.
