I agree with your analysis: proceed using "_" or some other innocuous
character; do not do anything that requires a change to the established
URI syntax.  I specifically reject the cut&paste argument in favour
of using unencoded "%": this is a sufficiently rare situation that
convenience really doesn't matter.

On the choice of innocuous character I have no strong opinion.  "_"
seems fine.  I note that ";" would be harmonious with existing syntax
elsewhere in URIs.  Almost any punctuation character looks OK, however.
Letters "g" to "z" (either case) are the only technically possible
characters that are really bad choices.
