It is my opinion that name resolution (however done) is outside the

The URI scheme is defined here, and absolutely must explain whether
it's a host (for direct address lookup), or a domain (for SRV).
It's proven impossible, despite effort, to retrofit SRV onto HTTP;
there is no way it'll be possible to retrofit onto WS.
