Thanks for your report. I'm having a hard time understanding your English. If I 
understand you correctly, your bug report is about the open_local_file() method 
and the surprising fact that urllib supports the local_file schema.

I agree, this looks like an implementation artefact. urllib should not expose 
the local_file schema. In Python 3 refuses local_file:// (tested with 3.4 to 
3.7).

>>> import urllib.request
>>> urllib.request.urlopen('local_file:///etc/passwd').read()[:30]
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
  File "/usr/lib64/python3.6/urllib/request.py", line 223, in urlopen
    return opener.open(url, data, timeout)
  File "/usr/lib64/python3.6/urllib/request.py", line 526, in open
    response = self._open(req, data)
  File "/usr/lib64/python3.6/urllib/request.py", line 549, in _open
    'unknown_open', req)
  File "/usr/lib64/python3.6/urllib/request.py", line 504, in _call_chain
    result = func(*args)
  File "/usr/lib64/python3.6/urllib/request.py", line 1388, in unknown_open
    raise URLError('unknown url type: %s' % type)
urllib.error.URLError: <urlopen error unknown url type: local_file>

stage:  -> needs patch
