Opera is whether a raw "\" in the query component needs to be escaped.
That's an interesting question, but again it's solely about error recovery
("\" is invalid in URIs).
Apparently we must transmit "invalid URIs" over the wire then.
That may be true, but I'm not sure what point you're trying to make here.
More than two slashes following an hierarchical scheme is another. As
I and others explained before, the RFCs leave a lot up to
implementations and that does not match what we need. We could try to
write something on top of those RFCs, but so far nobody has been
successful at that.
Well, maybe it's worth trying. The other strategies that have been tried
haven't resulted in a finished spec, either, right?
Ian has tried to patch the RFCs in HTML. That was a mess. I am going
to try to obsolete the RFCs (at least to some extent).
It was a mess, but not for that reason.
Best regards, Julian
