> It specifies how URLs should be parsed and handled from anywhere in the Web platform. Which is why browsers (and cURL) support redirecting to http://///////google.com/.

Actually, not just the web platform. http:///url.spec.whatwg.org (oh look, that link doesn’t get autolinked) says that it intends to replace RFC 3986 and RFC 3987 *entirely*. Not just for the web, or for browsers, but for *everything*.
