--- Comment #10 from Tyler Romeo <[email protected]> ---
I wouldn't attempt to make a comprehensive URI parsing library in JavaScript.
The first reason is because it's unnecessary. With the fix I just uploaded to
Gerrit, there should not be any more bugs in this function. Secondly, the
regular expression would be absurdly complicated. URIs have specific sets of
characters that can be included only in certain sections. I wrote a regex for
an official URI once when I was working on the PHP version of this class (still
in Gerrit), and it was so confusing it took days to get it working properly.
