In fact, PHP does it like php.net/functionname which is even shorter, i.e. they fallback to the documentation if that path does not exist otherwise. Like many things PHP, that seems a bit too magical for my tastes.

Not only does it fall back to documentation, it falls back to a
search for documentation if there isn't a function of that name.

It's a convenient feature, I'm sure people would use it if it was
there... even if it was something like http://python.org/doc/name
