Encoding # works fine. An encoded comma or semi-colon doesn't display and stops further parsing of the number at that point, as far as the phone app is concerned (Nexus here). You can manually add them with the phone app via the menu options but that doesn't help me much when the purpose is auto-dialling.
Any other workarounds or does this need reporting ?
