You want Gecko (the core for Firefox, SeaMonkey, and others) to be
similarly broken. Most of us would prefer that Gecko not be broken.

but SM(or Gecko) is broken when he accept "\" in a server-based URI when
this server is on my pc.

The statement "\ is not allowed" is not correct, as far as I can tell. It is an allowed character in an URI, but then it is not a path separator character in a hierarchical URI. I've already pointed in another reply - the server is fine if it does some substitution to resolve the actual resource to serve (depending on the OS it is running), but then the client (and IE) should not automatically convert \ to / as it may result in a non-existent (on the server) URI.
