Similar to how a JDBC URL works,
providing a convenient format for
specifying a connection to an Infinispan resource.
Look at [1]

^ Hmmm, all properties? Do you envision potentially putting all HR client config inside a
URL?
The use of the ?name=value[&name=value] format in the URL is not the
only way. JDBC, for example, has a separate properties param:
DriverManager.getConnection(jdbcUrl, properties);

^ Why 'local-cache' in property name? cachemanager.mycache...etc would be enough
since there can't be duplicate cache names inside a given cache manager. So, is
'local-cache' merely a hint?
This is not for connecting to an existing
instance, but for actually
creating a cachemanager.
