you are correct.

you can manoever around this problem with a plumbing rule like

type	is	text
data	matches	'file:/(.+)'
arg	isfile	$1
data	set	$file
plumb	to	edit
plumb	client	window	$editor

which will work for text.  for html, this approach just doesn't work ---
illustrating the lack of integration between acme and abaco.
