If you put a URL in the @URL field of @Reference, it will break.
Alternatively, you could put this definition in your mydefs:

    export "~" "/" "//"
    def @URL body x
    {
        def "~"  { "~" }
        def "/"  { "/"  &0p }
        def "//" { "//" &0p }

        x
    }

and write e.g. @URL { http://www.cs.usyd.edu.au } with no quotes.
I haven't tested this but it works the same way as the @URL field
of @Reference, which you can find in $(LOUTLIB)/include/dsf.
