Can I use IDebugControl4::ControlledOutputWide in my WinDbg extension to create a clickable link to open a URL in a web browser?

I'm making a WinDbg extension. I can use DML (debugger markup language) to output a link into the WinDbg's command window as such:

//IDebugClient* pDebugClient;
CComPtr<IDebugControl4> pDebugControl;
pDebugClient->QueryInterface(IID_PPV(pDebugControl));

pDebugControl->ControlledOutputWide(DEBUG_OUTCTL_DML, 
         DEBUG_OUTPUT_NORMAL, 
         L"This is <link cmd=\"db 0x%x\">clickable here</link>",
         address);

This will create a link, that if clicked, will run db command in WinDbg.

I'm wondering, if there's a way to create a link there that will open an arbitrary URL in a web browser?

EDIT: As suggested in the comment, if I do:

pDebugControl->ControlledOutputWide(DEBUG_OUTCTL_DML, 
         DEBUG_OUTPUT_NORMAL, 
         L"This is <link cmd=\"https://stackoverflow.com\">clickable URL</link>");

After I click it, I'm getting:

2: kd> https://stackoverflow.com
       ^ Syntax error in 'https://stackoverflow.com'

So my guess is that one possibly needs to override the "click-event". I just can't find where it is exposed?
