That class is an implementation of RFC 2396 [1] which requires at least 
one character after the colon:

absoluteURI   = scheme ":" ( hier_part | opaque_part )
hier_part     = ( net_path | abs_path ) [ "?" query ]
opaque_part   = uric_no_slash *uric
uric_no_slash = unreserved | escaped | ";" | "?" | ":" | "@" |
                "&" | "=" | "+" | "$" | ","
net_path      = "//" authority [ abs_path ]
abs_path      = "/"  path_segments
