I would expect that *if* an URI syntax becomes implemented, it should
support all possible options.
Especially things like ssl but also connecting via Unix socket instead of
TCP should be covered. Else applications would need to offer one way to
specify the "usual" connection and another way to offer configuration with
"special requirements" such as connection to unix socket or via ssl. (...
which would probably not be supported by many applications, since "everybody
connects to localhost:5432 anyway..."
