It almost certainly would work, however HttpClient would then be
broken (as far as URI parsing goes) for everyone else.  As others have
pointed out (and as Tim explained to me in sad detail), URI is just
basically broken when it comes to using it with the multi-arg
constructors.  It's flat-out impossible to recreate a URI with the
multi-arg constructors and have it point to the correct resource.
