@afs, I think this addresses your concern about the mis-use of "absolute IRI", at least within this document. If the general direction seems reasonable, I can replicate to other specifications.

I can't think of a better name at the moment. For other docs, just "IRI" is reasonable. The syntax parsing step will cover the need to make complete. We can overload text about details and harm readability by always putting in our local terminology.

Going back to 3986/3987: I can't find terminology for:

URI         = scheme ":" hier-part [ "?" query ] [ "#" fragment ]

with

hier-part   = "//" authority path-abempty

but none of the other hier-part alternatives.
