Its "almost" working in Firestorm 4.6.1 Fleep... and you can use 
hop:// externally to launcg Firestorm if its not running and prefill 
in the location, if Firestorm is running clicking an external hop:// 
brings up the teleport dialogue, you can use hop:// forms in the top 
address bar to jump to foreign grid destinations, and it works in IM 
and text chat too.  When you jump between grids you get a clickable 
return address in nearby chat.  Its almost all okay except that you 
cannot use the hop to jump between regions on the SAME grid.

I set up a test page for hop:// links and my notes on what I think 
OUGHT to work eventually (for use in the days when Cinders was 
working on this as we did some testing on some of the nightly builds 
and beta versions of FireStorm).  It includes notes on what I believe 
is working now and in the various Firestorm versions...
