Some suggestions

servlet:byId:com.mycompany.block1.servlet:/...
servlet:!com.mycompany.block1.servlet:/...
servlet:~com.mycompany.block1.servlet:/...
servlet:@com.mycompany.block1.servlet:/...

My favorite is the last one.

I really like last one. I would agree to have such a syntax.

Now, I don't want to spoil the contest here, but I would be great if we could choose a real url syntax which is parsable by the java.net.URL class. It is a) good to have valid urls

what's wrong with e.g. servlet:@com.mycompany.block1.servlet:/...?

and b) a long time ago we had the idea of just using plain java.net.url implementations instead of the source resolver bean (and actually I'm currently working on this), so all sources which are now available through the source resolver will be available using the plain java api.
So, I think its worth considering this now :)

AFAIU, we have to register our own protocols. For that purpose we have to call http://javadoc.developintelligence.com/java/net/URL.html#setURLStreamHandlerFactory(java.net.URLStreamHandlerFactory) and according to the javadocs it can only be called once per JVM. Is it a good idea to rely on having to be the first?
