Resolution status:

1) ** WELL DEFINED QUERY AND AUTHORITY **
http://www.w3.org/TR/webarch/#URI-scheme points to RFC 2617, which has been
replaced by RFC 4395. I think WebArch should be updated to recommend that
W3C recommendations must use "permanent" schemes and not "provisional" ones.

RFC 4395 requires that permanent scheme definitions be "Well-defined". Leaving in syntactic components and declaring them "out of scope" is leaving them undefined.

Suggestion: Remove 'authority' from the syntax, and any sections that
refer to them; disallow query components
Alternate Suggestion: define the meaning of "authority" and query components.
