Link "mailto:" link gets converted to "about:blank"

I am using a Link UI Kit component to display a mailto link with email addresses, but the href attribute will only render as about:blank. Is this expected behavior?

@LarkinYoung this is expected, link only supports linking to another page or absolute URL — I can ask our team if mailto is something we would want to support

Hi @LarkinYoung, we’ll be adding more protocols including mailto to the Link. Thanks for raising!

We’ve gotten around to this, expect it to hit products when they upgrade soon.

was there a release on this in between, if yes, can you please share the documentation? I’m unable to find it in the Link UI kit of the forge, it doesn’t talk about to to launch email app. M I confused?
