Since this matches the empty string,
no network addresses are required to form a fURL.
The supporting code around the regular expression also takes extra steps to allow an empty string to match here.
Open Questions
--------------
1. Should we make a hard recommendation that all certificate fields are ignored?
The system makes no guarantees about validation of these fields.
Is it just an unnecessary risk to let a user see them?
2. Should the version specifier be a query-arg-alike or a fragment-alike?
The value is only necessary on the client side which makes it similar to an HTTP URL fragment.
The current Tahoe-LAFS configuration parsing code has special handling of the fragment character (``#``) which makes it unusable.
However,
the configuration parsing code is easily changed.
