In case of http:// links there are no files. Existing editors may not support opening content without any physical file.

Or, we could create a temporary file... Not very transparent to the user, but it might work.

> The browsersim is particularly important for Windows users who do not have the iOS Simulator that ships with XCode.  And while the Windows user does have access to Android's simulator, it is very slow and tricky to install & use.   
> One way for a new mobile web developer to learn is via the traditional (mid 1990's) learning "tool" - view source - visit a page that you like and select view source to see how it was built.  
> Having view source in the browsersim would be valuable - otherwise the Windows end-user needs to install Safari for this "use case".
