Description
Currently, the Media class only allows loading media through file, jar and http URLs.

Our use case is an application that has media files embedded in a custom store. A custom protocol handler was implemented to already load images from this store, but fails for sound and video. This is a documented limitation of the API, but lifting this limitation would be great.
