What we've done for CUPS is similar:

    smb://workgroup
    smb://workgroup/server
    smb://workgroup/server/share
    smb:///server/share (server in current workgroup)

The main difference is (as you can see) that the workgroup shows up
after the // in the URI, which IMHO is a bit more "standard" and
follows the recommended stuff for the file: scheme.
