Re: [hybi] [Uri-review] ws: and wss: schemes

[Kristof Zelechovski <[e-mail]>]

Whether the readability disadvantage of having a longer aliased prefix is
serious depends on how often such code has to be written or used.  If Web
application developers feel the need to say { ws+"host/path" } instead of {
"ws://host/path" }, the hypercorrectness has really gone over the edge.

IMHO,
Chris

I can't see that as a significant issue, as there is only a trivial
difference between dispatching based on the string prefix
"http://wss.example/" and the string prefix "wss:".  Both are simple,
constant strings and both are equally "magic": they cause agent to
attempt the WSS protocol.
