1. The document "Converting New URI Schemes or URN Sub-Schemes to HTTP" [1] specifically addresses the use case where the custom URL is presented to a casual user. Since there are no legitimate casual users of the Web Sockets protocol that is designed to be used by Web applications only, there are no benefits to introducing the additional complexity of using an http alias. 2. Additionally, the proposed solution of using the URI prefix "http://wss.example/" is suited for custom protocols, according to the description at [1]. A protocol promulgated by the WWW Corporation can hardly be viewed as custom.

In essence, a URI prefix such as "http://wss.example/" can be defined that would serve the same purpose as a "wss:" scheme: an agent that recognizes this prefix will know to attempt the WSS protocol. But an agent that doesn't *might* still be able to fall back to doing something useful with the URI if it were an http URI, whereas it couldn't if it were a "wss:" URI. -- David Booth, Ph.D.
