It's not exactly about skipping scheme validation, but a minimal validation (e.g. all ascii letters and maximal length).

I took Burhan Khalid's pull request and updated it to target the 3.1 release.

I also tweaked the regexp for the accepted schemes to better match the RFC (I think).
As suggested by Tim in the previous pull request, I added a test to make sure all currently assigned schemes [1] are validated by the regexp.

As I commented on the PR, I'm not 100% convinced we shouldn't be saying that folks should create a custom validator for the known set of schemes that they want to accept, rather than adding an '__all__'. What do others think?

Agreed, I don't see a wide usage of __all__. In most of cases you want to add some schemas which is already possible. I believe solving #25594 would be a real solution for easy customizing the list of schemes.
