If you really believe that, just short it instead of writing a slashdot article :)

But he could have used another token, such as |, so instead of ://, you just need one. So the URLS could have been:
http|tech.slashdot.org:80/story/09/10/14/1219215/Tim-Berners-Lee-Is-Sorry-About-the-Slashes
And you can still use your example:
tech.slashdot.org:80/story/09/10/14/1219215/Tim-Berners-Lee-Is-Sorry-About-the-Slashes
Even you can still use the username and password functionality:
http|user:password@tech.slashdot.org:80/story/09/10/14/1219215/Tim-Berners-Lee-Is-Sorry-About-the-Slashes
Here are my 2 cents.

I totally disagree that developers or software engineers cant work in an environment like that one. I am involved in a project with 10+ people and we definitely need to be together and discuss things everyday, so being in cubicles wont help. Plus, when I need to concentrate I put my headset and listen some music, which for me is the best way to concentrate and relax the mind.
On the other hand, even if we need some concentration, we cant be 8 hours with the head down working with the computer. "I am a people person", as said in IT Crowd series, and I need to be in contact with other people.
