What is the advantage of adding another string type over simply using KURL in
more places?

If we are concerned about the footprint of a KURL, then perhaps we could
optimize it.  I can imagine it being nearly as cheap as a String object.  We
could leverage the work that was done to allocate StringImpl with the UChar
array, to allow us to store the additional indices held by a KURL object inline
with the URL characters.  This way, we achieve a small footprint for a KURL
object, and avoid having to re-parse and re-canonicalize URL strings.  We can
have a simple rule that encourages use of KURL everywhere we reference absolute
URLs.
