I don't think so:

"Characters that are allowed in a URI but do not have a reserved purpose
are called unreserved.  These include uppercase and lowercase letters,
decimal digits, hyphen, period, underscore, and tilde."

That is only to say that I would have expected ~ to work without
escaping in an asciidoc link.

Single quotes should need escaping as they are reserved characters.
