Re: [whatwg/url] Addressing HTTP servers over Unix domain sockets (#577)

Introducing the ".local" issue all over again. But even if we exclude that part, it still has the issue with the path, not to mention that you completely forgot about Windows systems and their paths (yes, windows has AF_UNIX too).

And your syntax wouldn't work for any of these:
* `D:/project/foo.socket"
* `\\wsl\home\user\project.socket`

And even using the UNIX style syntax Windows supports of `/foo/bar.socket` (that Windows interprets as `CurrentDrive:\foo\bar.socket`) won't reliably work, as it will not necessarily use the same "CurrentDrive" for all applications on the same computer, as it entirely depends on what drive your current working directory set to. If it's `D:\something` then it evaluates to `D:\foo\bar.socket` but if it is `C:\something` then you get `C:\foo\bar.socket`
