[XML-URI] HTTP extensions framework comparison

Just remembered this ...

The Http Extensions Framework (RFC 2774) has an identification  
mechanism similar to XML Namespaces. It also uses URIs as
identifiers and might also be vulnerable to some of the same
issues. It specifies absolute URIs only (so it's avoided one
of our problems), but, unfortunately, it hasn't specified any
URI comparison mechanism, so the canonicalization issues
remain.

See,

Cheers,
