Anne has since tried to respec URL parsing in detail, with the work in
progress being here:
http://url.spec.whatwg.org/
I recommend checking that spec to see if it does what you want, and if
not, working with Anne to see if it can be adjusted accordingly or if
something else needs to happen.
This is not written down explicitly just yet, but for data URLs I
think we want the fragment to *not* be part of the actual resource,
but rather as an input to the resource so things like
data:text/html,<style>:target{background:lime}</style><p id=x>test#x
work. (Fails in Chrome, but works fine in Opera and Firefox already.)
Clarifying: that sounds like making it parse just like in any other URI
(with which I would agree).
The test case at
http://greenbytes.de/tech/tc/datauri/#svg
seems to imply that Opera doesn't do this right yet, though. (tested
with 12.02)
