Comment 3:

Fragments are never sent in HTTP.  They're purely a local browser concept.
Opaque and Fragment should not be set. Scheme isn't necessarily known... the HTTP
package just uses a listener.  It doesn't know the details of how a connection was made.
 Although I'm sure we could hack it to make it work for the common two types.

Comment 4 by kelwert@mtu.edu:

Shouldn't Host be set though?

Comment 6:

This seems to me mainly a doc fix.
If the request said GET /foo then r.URL.Host will be empty.
If the request said GET http://you.com/foo then r.URL.Host will be "you.com". But that's
only common in proxies.
r.Host is the convenience, the effective host regardless of the request form. r.URL
tells you what was sent in the GET line.
