I think
mailto:masinter@parc.xerox.com?subject=URL%20semantics
is in the same class as
http://www.service.domain/ask?a=b
in that this URL is a particular elaboration of an interaction with
http://www.service.domain/ask
so I don't think there's any fundamental difficulty with the extension
itself. I think the problem may be with how
draft-hoffman-mailto-url-00.txt
currently describes it, and I'd happily take any suggestions for
improvements in the wording.
Regards,
Larry
