urllib should NOT try to parse a "doc:" scheme. Any scheme in urllib should
ONLY be IANA-registered schemes, and the resulting URL should follow the
appropriate RFCs.

If doc: is ever registered, then go ahead and teach it to urllib. Until
then, I'll scream and shout and be very annoying :-)

Big -1 on this from me.
