What about a Uri class to build/split uri in components?

Reading RFC, there's a regex to split uri:


        string url = "http://example.com/path/subpath/?query=val&query2=val#frag";
        enum ctr = ctRegex!(r"^(([^:/?#]+):)?(//([^/?#]*))?([^?#]*)(\?([^#]*))?(#(.*))?");

        auto m = match(url, ctr);
        if (m)
        {
                writeln("scheme " ~ m.captures[2]);
                writeln("autority " ~ m.captures[4]);
                writeln("path " ~ m.captures[5]);
                writeln("query " ~ m.captures[7]);
                writeln("fragment " ~ m.captures[9]);
        }

It would be useful to have it on phobos, and adding some method to build up uri too. On std.path we have functions for path operations...

Yea, something like that would be a very good thing to have in Phobos.
