Actually... I take back my proposal to use vwrap://...

After all that first part (vwrap) means that that is the
protocol used. So, such an URI would be used to establish
a connection over which the VWRAP protocol is used.
That was not the case though.

Meadhbh is right, the correct way is to use http:// and
have the page return a different content type.

The actual format can be XML for the reasons given.
The actual data should be everything that is needed (for vwrap)
to allow someone to connect there (*just* a region name wouldn't
be enough, you also need to know which world it is).
