I though that we had more flexibility in defining URIs based on the scheme. Section 3 says: "The URI syntax is dependent upon the scheme. In general, absolute URI are written as follows: <scheme>:<scheme-specific-part> An absolute URI contains the name of the scheme being used (<scheme>) followed by a colon (":") and then a string (the <scheme-specific- part>) whose interpretation depends on the scheme. The URI syntax does not require that the scheme-specific-part have any general structure or set of semantics which is common among all URI." Does a mailto URI fit the grammar given in 2396? Jason.
