AutoLinks currently recognizes and links mailto:... URIs.

tel:+1555123456 is the RFC 3966 standard ways to link to phone numbers. It is recognized in several browsers (especially on phones) to launch the dialer or to launch facetime etc. See browser support.

This is a feature request to add tel:... URI auto-linking.
