Though, an other reason for not accepting this patch is that some
websites may expect URL like this one, which relies on both encoded
and raw commas: http://foo.bar/param-1,param-2%2Cwith%2Ccommas,param-3

Huh?  Both of the following requests are equivalent:

http://foo.bar/param-1,param-2%2Cwith%2Ccommas,param-3
http://foo.bar/param-1%2Cparam-2%2Cwith%2Ccommas%2Cparam-3

This is because web servers are required to process the URL and
unescape *any* '%' sequences.  So in both cases the server 'backend'
is going to see a request for:

param-1,param-2,with,commas,param-3
