Custom Elements aren't recognized if reference comes from CDN url.

Interesting. Yeah, that's doable. I suppose from a caching perspective we should assume that such files never change?

All that would be necessary is writing a wrapper for FsUrlLoader that can detect http/https urls and return the bytes of the result, otherwise deferring to FsUrlLoader

Wait, no, that may cause all sorts of interesting issues in the analyzer. But good issues, that we should solve. Put forward a proposal in an analyzer issue.
