Description
What is the feature you'd like to have?
Follow-up to #8218, make the URL handler support specifying load options as well.
Is your feature request related to a problem?
Improving automation of analysis with the UI
Are any alternative solutions acceptable?
I could tell people to just do it by hand or (after #8218) with the command-line.
Additional Information:
Probably less utility than #8218 but uses basically the same code-paths so probably would not be too difficult to handle.

Research direction
Start by reading follow-up issue #8218 and tracing the existing URL handler code path. Determine how load options are represented and passed when opening a file, then add URL support for specifying them and verify that UI automation can use the resulting URL behavior.
