Research direction

Start by reviewing the command-line option handling and the path used to download schemas from official URLs. Define how a configured rewrite maps an official schema URL to a company mirror, then verify that the rewritten URL is used when external sites are blocked.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

In order to more easily handle downloaded schema in a company network,
I hope there is a cmdline to configure URL rewrite,
so that the schema under the official URL, such as https://www.schemastore.org/,
can be rewritten to a company mirror URL.

The reason is that external websites are often blocked by company firewall.
