What about BiblioSource for URLs? like this:
<biblioentry xreflabel="veryuseful">
<bibliosource class="uri">
<ulink url="http://....">Very Useful Site</ulink>
</bibliosource>
</biblioentry>
(You may rather want to use Title element with empty ULink.)
For descriptions, Abstract is suitable for a brief
summary. Or BiblioMisc to include more detailed information.

Yes. In the above example, the entry can be referenced using XRef
with linkend="veryuseful".

VariableList has TermLength attribute, so it's possible to make a
separate template for, say, "variablelist[@termlength = 'urllist']"

Can we? It doesn't validate on my system.
