Hi Alexey, I noticed that all of your drafts mention the IETF, but you 
neither define it nor reference a definition ;)

Seriously, that rule is generally taken seriously only for terms that 
affect the meaning of the document. "Copyright 2012 trustees of the 
IETF" has no impact on the document's meaning — it could be IBM, the 
document would still say the same thing.

IMO mailto does not need a reference. No matter what mailto actually 
means, the document still says the same thing.
