Dear Mozilla,
You guys are fucking idiots.
Love,
Update: okay, so I checked, and that's a legitimate security issue, known as cross-protocol attacks. Or rather it would be, if it wasn't for the fact that a user-entered URL cannot usefully be a source of such attack. And there's a bug dating back to 2001 stating "Add user UI for that". Still lame and just as enraging when I have to use another browser for one stupid address.

You can allow some ports (i.e. 563) by specifying a comma-separated list in a _new_ parameter in about:config named network.security.ports.banned.override
See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Network.security.ports.banned.override for details.
