I will check for additional client software that may have
been added recently.  I was hoping I could get an answer
before downloading.

What I mean was, is this a creational YURL, an object YURL,
a method YURL, an attachment YURL, etc. etc.  Can the
client figure out what to do with the YURL if passed one through
a 3rd party, or through some queue supported by Waterken Server?

I'm not talking about plugging a YURL into a web browser,  I want
that information as part of client software.

One thing I suppose I could do is generate X3D using a stylesheet
associated with code on the server.   This certainly is a possibility.
I would probably have to write an X3D fragment parser on the client
side.  I am not sure, but I think that most X3D parsers parse entire
documents.  I guess I can look for streaming X3D.
