What happens when you try this in CLI/Console? In both UIs there must be a way to pass in
a URI that is then accessible from a DUP.

Perhaps there are some limitations at that level. Have a look at the variations of

The URL handler is mainly a URI parser that is supposed to give access to the OSGi
metadata that need to be put in the manifest (in our case the OSGiMetaData not the
Manifest). AFAIK, the Framework tries to construct a URL from the location only if no
input bytes are given. When we talk about an URLHandler we are mainly talking about a
simple URI parser. A URLHandler would need to be implemented for BundleContext(location)
to work.

When the Framework activates the URL handler gets registered with the framework and the
