When a link contains feed: in the URL, it is not displayed correctly in the status bar.

The actual URL is 

   a href="feed:http://www.....com/feed/"

but the URL shown in the status bar is 

   feed://http//www.....com/feed/

IE8 shows the correct URL in the status bar. Not sure if this is a problem, but thought I would report it.

Such a feed works for me even if it is displayed differently then you expect on the status bar. 

data:text/html,<a href="feed:https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/758020/feed">feed</a>
