SMW has only very little restrictions on the URIs that can be used. If a URI
used in SMW is not using one of MediaWiki's supported protocols then this
simply means that SMW will not print it in [ ] (since this only works properly
if the protocol is allowed in MW). But the value is accepted in any case, so
there is no need to worry about SMW here. If URI validation was to be extended,
then SMW would add more checks for allowed URL structures and characters but
not restrict the protocol.

The purpose of Type:Email mainly is to make the mailto optional whereas proper
URLs must always specify a protocol explicitly.
