Huh? Various resources have various URL lengths. You want another 
shorter example?

http://example.com/news.html?item_32894_43ER_54&where_4358asdf08

This example comes to show that lots of URLs are very meaningless and 
shouldn't be displayed as is even if they short.

non-hypertext renderers will deal with U<> the same way they deal with 
L<scheme:>
