Not having the stomach to do that myself, I want to support him as far as possible.
But where I only partially agree is where Plan 9 concepts contradict what may be "common practice". A URL is a well defined object and adopting it as a standard, as quite a few services have done (I'm thinking PostgreSQL and OpenLDAP, for example) rather than pursue the '!' convention seems worth it. But, as you suggest, one does have to draw the line.
