We felt that allowing some custom URI schemes like cast://applicationId instead of the URL would be too specific to Cast protocol only.

How about the case when navigation occurs in the secondary page�s context? Do we need to prohibit that? Or do we just record the initial �requestShow� parameter URL for re-discovering existing sessions? I am thinking about a case where the secondary page navigates away from the initial URL by manipulating document.___location.href, for example.
