Hi, I think TR/html5-diff should mention that at least href= is
supposed to support IRIs instead of URIs.  Likely this affects
all XHTML 1 attributes accepting URIs now.

The draft claiming to be the "5th revision of HTML" introduces
a javascript: "protocol" for URLs, apparently no IRIs in that
case.  If "protocol" is a synonym for "unregistered scheme" in
the same vein as "about:", "mocha:", etc. it might be also a
difference from XHTML 1.
