Don, I think there is an easier answer:

    Convert URLs to package names.

For example, 
    www.jxml.com/mdsax
becomes
    com.jxml.www.mdsax


We can still allow considerable freedom in the format of the URI.
And yes, there is a risk of introducing non-uniqueness. But a
reasonable choice of URI eliminates this risk.
