I just think we should leave the URLs like they are. There are so many=
possible suffixes and prefixes (country codes, com, net, edu, www, ftp,=
http:, https:, shttp:, etc.) that this asterick idea is useless and only=
adds to the complexity. If the URLs really need to be simplified, a whole=
new locating system should be used and not just a mask over an existing one=
.
