Git remote names already aren't "url"s in the http sense. 

We say "master:some.host/file/goes here/without/any/stupid/web-escapes" 
for the ssh names, and the same goes for "file:///name here" etc.

People who think that git URL's are web-pages had better wake up and smell 
the coffee. They aren't. They never were. They never *should* be.

This whole argument is idiotic. The #branch format was a mistake of 
cogito. Cogito is dead. Get over it already.

We have a format already, and it has nothing to do with '#' or any idiotic 
web escape, or anything else.
