BTW, you can get meaningful information about a non-http URN on the web
today.  For example, Google search for ISBN:1-558-60622-X returns a few
pages.  If people chose to start publishing comments to either Usenet or
web pages about URN:ISBN:1-558-60622-X, you can be sure that they would
be accessible to anyone who chose to query.
