What about a URI-like handler?

![alt text](video:/path/to/video)
![alt text](audio:/path/to/audio)
![alt text](image:/path/to/image)
![alt text](/path/to/image)

The downside is that for audio & video you would need different tags
depending on the site. Maybe site-specific ones would be appropriate:

![alt text](youtube:key)
![alt text](vimeo:key)
![alt text](lastfm:key)
![alt text](flickr:key)
