Comment:

 Great! This is good news. Hopefully, it's much easier for people to enter
 bridges now.

 I have a couple concerns:

  1. I tried this on an android device with the latest Orbot (using the
 `qrencode` tool you suggested to encode the line above) and Orbot didn't
 pick up on the URL schema.

  2. No other application (TorLauncher/Tails/that iOS thing) supports that
 URL-encoded string, so I'm worried that it would be extra confusing
 buttons in BridgeDB, i.e. ("give me bridges > give me a qrcode > give me a
 qrcode specifically for Orbot").
