As for your premises, I don't see how considering the address bar out of scope (which I can tell you it's also for the RFC as no standard gets to dictate UI) means that the URL Standard is only for web browsing. As I told you earlier it's implemented by Node.js.

As for XML namespaces, they're treated as strings (and required as such by the XML specification) so it really doesn't matter whether they're considered in scope or not. I suppose they're in scope for the URL Standard as far as validity is concerned.
