Package: urlscan
Version: 0.5.5
Severity: normal

Trying to surf to the URL
  http://www.faz.net/m/{88B0CAF6-DE67-4F88-9E93-8EFDD99EBCF3}File2.jpg
I notice how urlscan trims the URL after /m/ -- it probably doesn't
see {} as being a valid URL character. I am not sure whether they
are, nor can I be bothered to check the RFC because they are in use
and they work with browsers. Could urlscan thus please also honour
them?

Another URL I had problems with was one using unescaped @ signs,
like this:

  http://server/path/to/cgi?a=b&[EMAIL PROTECTED]

Again, this is probably not RFC-compliant, but it works and it would
thus be nice if urlscan honoured it.
