Nope, I already made the necessary autocmd (as I mentioned above), but it turns out it's a limitation of vim and it would be impossible for me to have "my_scheme://anything" handled by the "gf" mapping without modifying vim's code.
It has a special case in find_file_name_in_path() to accept anything with "://" in it (or almost anything... "myscheme://anything" is accepted but "my_scheme://anything" isn't). In my case I was trying to set something up for perforce depot paths that begin with "//depot/". It would be really great if, instead of having a hack to look for "://", vim would check for a matching BufReadCmd autocmd and base the decision of whether to accept the filename on that. In that case "foo://bar" would no longer be accepted as valid and my "//depot/something" would start being accepted since I've defined the autocmd.
