I believe people have discovered that the x- scheme is a bad idea for
several reasons, and those reasons apply to MIME types and URI schemes
as well.  And possibly also what X- is used for in Debian.  RFC 6648
doesn't obsolete the earlier RFCs, but describe actions that should be
considered when the earlier RFCs are eventually updated.
