Recently, a proposal [1] for registering message header fields was approved as BCP (yet to be published as RFC), which provides for a "provisional" registry as a way to address this kind of issue. Maybe consider something similar for URI schemes? I note an argument against this is that it might appear to encourage a proliferation of URI schemes, which would have costs not associated with message headers. (TOH, maybe better to proliferate in public view than in private enclaves?) #g -- [1] http://www.ninebynine.org/IETF/Messaging/HdrRegistry/draft-klyne-msghdr-registry-07.html (This is my personal website copy, I can't get to the IETF I-D search engine right now, and it seems the IETF-announce message archives have been moved yet again.)
