If you as an application query for a specific service, you should be prepared
to receive all URI schemes that can be used for that service.
I.e. if you query for _http._tcp.example.com. it would be confusing and weird
if you get a SIP-URI scheme back.
And if you get one you do not understand, throw it away.
It is similar to get a redirect in HTTP to a URI scheme you can not handle.
