It would be nice to get some implementation feedback on what to do about data:, javascript: etc.

Determining the origin of data:, javascript: URIs when they are responsible for making the request is defined by HTML5, but it's not really clear to me what should happen when somebody does:

 1. client.open("data:...")
 2. client.open("javascript:...")

should that always work or always throw? Testing shows that browsers throw (Firefox, Internet Explorer, Opera), except that Opera allows access to data:. The simplest thing to do would be to disallow everything that does not have any of the scheme, ihost or port components, but I'm open to other suggestions.
