Comment (by myneur):

 Please, think in the way of most common usecase instead of "theoretical
 correctness" or what's your point(?).

 Most common usecase is that user copy-paste address from his browser and
 these links needs to be translated. [[BR]]
 - in urlize, this case doesn't work at all
 [[BR]]
 - there is absolutely no way how the current urlize can work with a space
 in link (common in linked google documents) (plain text space breaks
 detection, and encoded space %20 is replaced into %2520).
 [[BR]]
 - there is no way why to use this function if it doesn't work:(

 What is usecase you have built urlize for?
 Does anybody do anything else than copypasting links?

 Thank you for rethinking this.
