Yes. Sort of. ;)

There are actually 2 URL fields.

One, the local URL, should be prepopulated and perhaps read-only. Just haven't
done this bit yet (feel free to make it work ;) )...

The other, the referring URL, is so people can do fancy stuff like provide a URL
for the feed that is not really the feed, but is an authenticator that redirects
to the local URL (the real feed) once someone logs in. This is necessary at GT,
where we use CAS rather than Basic Auth, and thus currently all feeds are either
completely public or don't work. :(

Also, the local URL has to be in the annotation so the view can look up the
annotation by URL in order to obtain the UUIDs. See the Atom implementation for
how this currently works.
