[VFS] Bookmarking Network URLs

I was wondering if anyone had any advice on how best to support bookmarks in
VFS?  There's a brief item on the VFSNext wiki page about an XML-based file
system, and I was wondering if that was going to be the recommended approach
in the future, or if there was some other way of supporting them?

Windows creates small text files (.URL) files that look something like this:
[InternetShortcut]
URL:http://www.news.com

I'm not sure what Linux or Mac OS uses.

If anyone has any suggestions, please let me know.

Regards,

Mark Fortner
