I've begun working on a specification for how browsers process URLs:

The repository is currently empty, but I'll be adding the basic
skeleton over the next few weeks. My intention is to triangulate
between how IE, Firefox, Chrome, Safari, and Opera process URLs to
find an algorithm that is both compatible with the web and moderately
sane.
Good luck ;)
Seriously, it is probably worth looking at things like curl that are not
browsers but consume URLs (and in turn are used by various systems that
interact with URLs for things like software updates, synchronisation, etc).
