I really have a problem with using URI's for this.
RFC2396 (http://www.ics.uci.edu/pub/ietf/uri/rfc2396.txt) section 6 talks
about URI Normalisation and equivalence
It says that URI equivalence is defined on a scheme basis. You have chosen
the http scheme so we are presumably required to apply the http definition
of URI equivalence. This does not seem to me to be a desirable criteria for
equivalence.
