I'd rather not introduce a novel origin value. Remember that web content cannot observe the specialness of `file:` URLs. Only when you navigate to a `file:` URL you might be able to "appreciate" its rather unique origin behavior. However, I think we should optimize for websites playing with `file:` URLs and give the same kind of answer they would get for unrecognized schemes.
