This was discussed recently here--it's on Gerald's feature list I
believe. There's no way to enable them right now.
Out of curiosity though. Why did everyone suddenly decide that &
wasn't good enough? When I think of all the code that has to be
augmented. All the changes that have to be made to handle both
cases. All the potential security holes from software that checks
for one but not the other.... What's the point?
I'm in a rather rotten mood about
unnecessary-multiple-ways-of-doing-the-same-thing right now, since I
just spent over an hour tracking down a few spammers who decided to
obfuscate their URLs using Microsoft Windows URL "features" like:
http://0x42.0x5C.0x48.0xC2/
http://0000102.0000134.0000110.0000302/
http://38685626227668133590597698.38685626227668133590597724.38685626227668133590597704.38685626227668133590597826
and of course
http://www.microsoft.com%401113344194
Those all go to my site, in case you're concerned about clicking on
unknown URLs.

I'm not sure which upsets me more: that people are so unwilling to accept
responsibility for their own actions, or that they are so eager to regulate
everyone else's.
