The io.ktor:ktor-http dependency of Ballast Navigation module includes the necessary functionality for parsing URLs, but also includes a bunch of other stuff used by the Ktor HTTP server/client that is not necessary for parsing URLs. It's a much bigger dependency than I initially thought when adopting it, and is prohibitively large for JS applications, producing bundles that are unacceptably large, and it should be removed and replaced.

Ideally, the replacement would be a fully-multiplatform URL parser, like Ktor, but in the absence of such a library, it will likely be better to actual/expect the URL functionality.
