Opening a geo: URI schema in JOSM does nothing

[TrickyFoxy]

What steps will reproduce the problem?

1. Click on the link [geo:37.786971,-122.399677] in browser (in my case Firefox 104) The clickable version can be found in this article ​https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geo_URI_scheme
2. Select JOSM as the application to open the link.
3. If JOSM is running, the focus will switch to the window with it.
4. If you have Go Map!! installed, then it will open next

What is the expected result?

It seems JOSM should have moved the map to the location with the coordinates specified in the link.

What happens instead?

Please provide any additional information below. Attach a screenshot if possible.

I don't believe we currently register (or can register) for URIs. You can open the URI by copying the link, then using the Open Location action.

I just tried this and for me it always opens a new josm instance and downloads + zooms to the location given in the geo: link

Replying to taylor.smock:

For me, JOSM is presented as an option to open the link with (firefox on debian)
