IMO this is a little bit short-sighted. You never know which knid of new 
URIs we have in 3 years.

It would be great if we do not have to patch sr for every new URI schema 
- having support for "absolute-URI" would allow to just handle the URI 
to an external application (exec, http, DB-query, radius ..whatever) and 
do the routing for the next hop.
