I see that some modules have git:// protocol as the repo address in META.yml 
and/or Pod. I don't think this is useful to anybody since we don't see the 
address at all in cpan shell and hardly anyone downloads and checks every file 
to locate a repo. The main way to interact with such an address is the 
search.cpan.org site (or perldoc command if it's in Pod) and IMHO repo 
addresses must be http(s):// to become clickable to ease accessibility unless 
the repo somehow does not support http access. I think that *maybe* M::B and 
any other builder can also warn if the repo is not /^http/?

So, what do you think?
