I'm curious on this group's, and the IETF's in general, take on references to 
(moving) WHATWG documents instead of IETF ones, like this draft introduces.

See [INFRA] and [URL].

I'm in particular concernced about the second, as I believe its 
inconsistencies with RFC 3986 and the effects of those differences (if any) on 
cookies are hard to assess. In particular since that document, contrary to 
IETF documents, is a "living" document. What was true yesterday might not be 
true tomorrow. If there is no (practical) difference, I figure referencing RFC 
3986 would be better, as that is fixed and known.
