Is it really so bad that this SMS URI scheme wasn't implemented?

To me it looks like another potential security vulnerability that could be abused by malicious websites.

Therefore I'm quite happy that this "feature" is missing ;)

It does not send SMS automatically. Just open SMS client

Yes, I know. If they implement it properly it's alright.

But my concern is that a it might get a security vulnerability when a nifty hacker finds a way to automatically submit the SMS.

And in my opinion omitting the feature is the best way to avoid that problem.
