If you think that's a file, how about this:

(url-handler-mode)
(find-file "http://www.google.com/?s=foo")
(file-notify-add-watch "http://www.google.com/?s=foo" '(change) #'ignore)
=> File notification error: "Directory does not exist", "http://www.google.com"

or this

(hypothetical-emacsfs-mode)
(find-file "/efs/recentf/some-recent-file")
(find-file "/efs/bookmarks/some-bookmark")

-ap
