I really don't see any merit to this idea.  To keep the reply brief, here's=
 three of the larger problems I see with it:=0A=
=0A=
1. Other schemes will still exist and aren't likely to be deprecated.  All =
this proposal is doing is adding one /more/ scheme for wallet developers to=
 support.  It doesn't make their lives any easier.=0A=
=0A=
2. Beyond basic payments, these kinds of simple URI scheme aren't going to =
be enough anyway.  As we build more complex payment systems with more advan=
ced features, we'll find these kinds of schemes less and less suitable as t=
hey grow in the number and complexity of attributes we need to include.  It=
's just not future-proof, even in the short term.=0A=
=0A=
3. I don't see any reasonable way to define the attributes and what develop=
ers should do when their software encounters something it doesn't understan=
d.  It'd either be too strict so that no one implements it, or become a nig=
htmare of incompatible and misunderstood implementations that you never tru=
st your wallet is going to interpret how the URI creator intended.=0A=
