Things without any protocol:// will only link to local nodes; I don't see the point of special-casing something to work differently, when this is exactly the kind of problem the protocol: form was meant to solve. I actually wouldn't have any objection to someone creating nodes for each of those documents (with links to the live versions and a possible-staleness warning), but I hope they'd name them in full (i.e. Synopsis 3: Summary of Perl 6 Operators, not S03), so that doesn't really solve your problem.

After more thought, I'd like to avoid even reserving things like synopsis:// for just perl6 documents; maybe we'd want it to mean something different at some other point. p6aes://xx may be as good as you are going to get...

I would like to see the requirement for // after the colon go away, though...
