Would be much nicer indeed, splitting it into several fields isn't very useful, 
especially when you
paste those URLs to beginners in IRC channels ;)

Note that you can use "y2pmsh" and "installation_sources" to use 
fully-qualified URLs, e.g.:
installation_sources -e -a 
http://mirror.example.net/dir/subdir/subsubdir/opensuse
y2pmsh source -a http://mirror.example.net/dir/subdir/subsubdir/opensuse

"installation_sources" is part of the "yast2-packagemanager" RPM, but for 
"y2pmsh" you must first
install the "y2pmsh" package (that's shipped with SUSE).

You can also use y2pmsh to list the sources:
y2pmsh source -s
