There is a convention for pdfs:
http://www.example.com/document.pdf#page=5
But, AFAIK, it is not RFC.

So, there is nothing stopping from creating an ad-hoc convention to
parse URL locators in links to PDFs or org files or whatnot.

However, the question about activating a major mode on web content is a
question to Emacs developers. It should be considered carefully, because
activating major modes may not be safe.
