Your objection is duly noted --but doesn't change the fact that the
mentioned RFC *NOWHERE* states that this is allowed (except for 'mailto:'
and 'news:' URLs). On the contrary, for every other special URL ( 'http:',
'ftp:', 'nntp:', 'telnet:' ... ) these are required, as well as for every
other type of generic URL which is based on the IP schemepart.

A very common example is the 'file:' URL. It is mentioned in this context in
numerous Java books. It works and will be interpreted correctly, but
actually it is not even a *valid* URL.

Apart from that, your suggestion looks good and will certainly be taken into
consideration.
( although I'm not sure whether the supplementary introduction of the
Toolkit object has certain pitfalls... )

Greetz,

Andreas
