Non-web protocols (Was: What problems are we trying to solve?)

In the "Out of Scope" section, we've listed non-web user agents and
non-web protocols, and specifically called out email as out of scope.
Rather than map out the negative space, can we specifically list the
user agents and protocols that are in scope and say everything else is
out of scope?  For example, can we say that only web browsers, HTTP and
HTTPS are in scope? ACTION-19 seems to indicate that some WS-* protocols
might get added to this list.

If not, is there an existing definition of "non-web" we can refer to?
