I'm in a slightly different head-space with this idea.

A URL for instance, is essentially an encoded set of instructions for navigating to somewhere and then if it is a GET, grabbing the associated data, lets say an image. If my theoretical user where to create a screen (or perhaps we could call it a visual context), they'd just drag-and-drop an image-type into the position they desired.

That whole flow wouldn't be constructed by a programmer, just the translations, say bitmap->png, bits->compressed and compressed->bits.

Again, not a new concept - c.f., Intel Mashup Maker, Yahoo Pipes, Deri Pipes, ...
