I'm not sure, but a Java URL object does. You get it for free, unless 
you've included something that breaks it.

IIRC there was an issue with https:// urls having an extra character in 
the protocol description, which broke some custom string manipulation. 
You might get the same problem with the username:password@ syntax.
