Thanks for the reply Nemo. I read over the two links but am still a
little confused about the case for "Мстители (фильм, 2012)" on domain
ru, which is escaped as:
"%D0%9C%D1%81%D1%82%D0%B8%D1%82%D0%B5%D0%BB%D0%B8_%28%D1%84%D0%B8%D0%BB%D1%8C%D0%BC,_2012%29"
(everything but comma escaped)
"%D0%9C%D1%81%D1%82%D0%B8%D1%82%D0%B5%D0%BB%D0%B8_(%D1%84%D0%B8%D0%BB%D1%8C%D0%BC,_2012)"
(everything but comma+parens escaped)
"Мстители_(фильм,_2012)" (nothing escaped)

Shouldn't the comma and parens be escaped as well, or is there a
special case for reserved characters? If so, why are parens sometimes
escaped and sometimes not? Maybe some of the variation has to do with
how browsers encode/send the request?
