Tooling around, I noticed the following:

>> port-spec: make port! [
[      scheme: 'tcp
[      timeout: 0:10
[    ]
>> net-utils/url-parser/parse-url port-spec http://www.iitowns.com/
== none
>> print port-spec/host
www.iitowns.com
>> print port-spec/target
index.html

Now, knowing that index.html is _usually_ the desired target, it isn't
_always_ the target itself.  Index files can be almost anything the web
server has support for, i.e. .php, .php3, .asp, .shtml, etc.  Why was
this chosen to be a fillin and not what the server itself returns to be
the _actual_ target?

Not that any of this affects anything I'm doing, I'm just curious is
all. :)
