R. David Murray <rdmur...@bitdance.com> added the comment:

I think Mark is correct.  RFC 3986 says:

When authority is present, the path must either be empty or begin with a slash 
("/") character.  When authority is not present, the path cannot begin with two 
slash characters ("//").

I think it would make sense to have urlparse fall back to doing a generic RFC 
3986 parse when it does not recognize the scheme.
