Since nobody else has brought this up yet, I thought I'd mention that my interpretation of TimBL's comments in the minutes was that he was referring to HTTP GET, not DNS. When you combine this; "2. Any place I can use a URI I can use any URI." -- http://www.w3.org/DesignIssues/UI.html with this; "Request-Line = Method SP Request-URI SP HTTP-Version CRLF" -- http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2616.txt you can see that HTTP methods, including GET, are suitable for resolving and manipulating all resources, not just those in the HTTP URI scheme.
