They're called "GIT URLS" right now. I'd have hoped that was descriptive 
enough. But maybe not.

I think it's stupid to make up a new name, it's not like it's really 
ambiguous *or* as if people really think in terms of RFC's.

Let's face it: people talk and use email, even when they don't have a clue 
about SMTP. And in practice, you'll never see any difference, apart from 
the obvious extension of using the ssh format and the direct local path 
thing.
