By this proposal, the very same resource can be a Web page if I obtain it via HTTP, but not a Web page if it is on my local file system, acquired via an NFS-mounted remote file system, etc. What's the problem this is trying to solve? Resources obtained by ftp generally aren't rendered by a user agent; they are saved to a local file system. If they are rendered by a user agent, then surely they should count as Web pages (e.g., a collection of HTML documents on an ftp site). Resources referred to by the Mailto: URI scheme aren't rendered by a user agent; they are used to send mail, not to receive it. Thus I don't understand the problem which this is trying to address.
