You might consider supporting opening monero: links from a web browser. This is a feature that is supported by Electrum for bitcoin: links, which automatically open up the Send tab with the Pay To field populated.

To do this, the feather binary needs to accept an argument. On Linux, the .desktop file will then need to be modified in the following way to inform the OS that Feather Wallet can handle monero: links.

Change:

Exec=feather

to:

Exec=feather %u

This tells the OS that it can append the monero: URL and it will be passes as an argument.

Add:

MimeType=x-scheme-handler/monero

This informs the OS that Feather Wallet can handle links that begin with monero:.
