Comment (by Vishy Algo):
Replying to [comment:2 Jacob Walls]:
The current normalization logic unconditionally assumes a hierarchical
structure, forcing // on opaque schemes like mailto: and tel:.
We could restrict this domain enforcement to an allowlist of standard web
schemes (http, https, ftp, ftps) to prevent mangling valid URIs that use
data segments. Note that we already default the scheme to http if none is
provided.
What's your take on this approach?
