Yes, it would be possible, but there should be no reasonable expectation 
that the JNDI context which backs non-"java:" bindings is an in-memory 
context like "java:" is.  That's why the URL scheme should be present.

I think we could also look at treating these names as relative though. 
So for example they could be relative to "java:jboss/user/".  This way 
they are still in "java:" even if they don't explicitly say so.  If we 
wanted to support this from a lookup perspective though, that could get 
tricky, though maybe we could just apply the same logic there.
