Should Blink allow to display images in file:// from clipboard?

Reported by srinathr...@gmail.com, Aug 4 2016

Issue description

UserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/51.0.2704.106 Safari/537.36

Example URL:

Steps to reproduce the problem:
I have small iframe code as below.

<html>
<head>
<title>Paste test&</title>
<script>
  function onbodyload() {
    var iframe = document.getElementById("frm").contentWindow;
    var doc = iframe.document;
    doc.body.contentEditable = true;

  }
</script>
</head>
<body onLoad="onbodyload()">
Test
<p>
<iframe id="frm" width="800" height="600" contentEditable="true"></iframe>
</body>

1)Save the above html code in test.html and open it in FireFox browser.
2)Deploy test.html in weblogic server and run the test.html. 
3)Page opens the url something as "http://localhost:7101/test.html"
4)Open outlook email which has the image+text. Copy the image+text and paste it in the test.html.

What is the expected behavior?
Browser should display the text+images when i run the test.html using weblogic server.

Browser is able to work fine when i open the test.html using 
file:///C:/test.html 
but not working with http://localhost:7101/test.html.

What went wrong?

Actual results:

It displays the text but image is broken/not displayed.
I inspected the broken image and see that it is pointing to users tmp folder and in console there is an error.

Not allowed to load local resource: file:///C:\Users\XXXXXX\AppData\Local\Temp\msohtmlclip1\07\clip_image001.jpg
<img src="file:///C:\Users\XXXXXX\AppData\Local\Temp\msohtmlclip1\07\clip_image001.jpg" alt="Penguins.jpg" height="90" width="179">

However if i don't deploy the test.html and simply open in the browser, and test it works. 

Does it occur on multiple sites: No

Is it a problem with a plugin? No 

Did this work before? N/A 

Does this work in other browsers? No FF FF 48.0

Chrome version: 51.0.2704.106  Channel: n/a
OS Version: 6.1 (Windows 7, Windows Server 2008 R2)
Flash Version: Shockwave Flash 22.0 r0

This is WAI; we don't want to allow non-file pages to load resources from file:// origins.
Is there any way to allow by changing any configuration settings or any work around?
