If yurl is not sufficiently generic, it should not have been named y"U"rl,
should it ;-)

I personaly would not see a problem in calling the folowing a yurl:

But possibly yurl is understanded to use networking protocols that protect
the sparse key part from being intercepted. If so, we might need a more
generic term that also includes the unprotected type of keys.
