@pulsifer: Why do you think
file://somewhere/somedir/file.txt
in <http://udk.openoffice.org/cpp/man/spec/uris.html> is a typo? On the
contrary, it is how OOo (at least tools/source/fsys/urlobj.cxx:1.59) represents
the UNC path
\\somewhere\somedir\file.txt
as a file URL. There is no ambiguity in OOo file URLs as to whether or not they
represent UNC paths (except perhaps in the heads of confused users). There is
no need for any new syntax you propose.
That said, there are most certainly specific issues when dealing with UNC paths
or file URLs representing UNC paths, but they have nothing to do with such an
alleged ambiguity.
(Related, you also sometimes find
file:////somewhere/somedir/file.txt
to represent the UNC path
\\somewhere\somedir\file.txt
I do not know how well OOo supports this additional, equally unambiguous
syntax.)
