Comment:
I've reviewed the PR, and added a comment on github.
It seems that 2396 is obsolete by RFC 3986 (Jan. 2005) [1]:
In particular
reserved = gen-delims / sub-delims
gen-delims = ":" / "/" / "?" / "#" / "[" / "]" / "@"
sub-delims = "!" / "$" / "&" / "'" / "(" / ")"
/ "*" / "+" / "," / ";" / "="
[...]
2.3. Unreserved Characters
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.
unreserved = ALPHA / DIGIT / "-" / "." / "_" / "~"
They also have an appendix with a compiled information about this
http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3986#appendix-A
I'm no expert in this, just bringing your attention to it.
