Description

It should be possible to allow file:// as an allowed origin - both by explicitly adding it, and also by pattern (eg *://* or something).

Research direction

The issue does not name a file, entry point, or test. Start by locating the Python code that validates WebSocket allowed_origin values and the tests covering explicit and pattern-based origins. Done means file:// is accepted when explicitly configured and through the requested pattern behavior, with tests covering both cases.
