Thank you very much for this detail explanation. As it is a simple modification to get this enhancement, and we had an issue about it, please re-open it.

UrlUtil deals with these chars correctly. The javadoc of URLDecoder [1] also only allows these characters, and it says -- There are two possible ways in which this decoder could deal with illegal strings. It could either leave illegal characters alone or it could throw an IllegalArgumentException. Which approach the decoder takes is left to the implementation. Now the Oracle implementation of the class "leave illegal characters alone" and a Unicode char is still Unicode and you get the correct result. In this sense, UrlUtil is not as good as URLDecoder. It neither leave them alone nor throw an exception. Therefore, maybe it's better to use URLDecoder here, but before any spec officially supports "other" characters (a category defined in the URI class, including non-ASCII non-control non-space Unicode chars), it's better to use 100% legal chars in an LDAP URI. If you have a strong request, I can re-open the bug.
