Bitcoin URL scheme whitelisted in HTML5
Something analogous to the way magnet URIs are used as an extensible scheme for peer-to-peer filesharing links?

Right; perhaps it would be better to introduce a generic URI scheme for paying:
pay:?currency=btc&address=1BlaH&amount=1.0

Then you need some standardisation on what 'currency' is anyway, and if you use ISO 4217 you shut out Bitcoin.
