The outcome you sketch will also result in all other W3C specifications
to be implemented by browsers (and even HTTP if it were to be defined in
a non-fiction manner) depend on HTML for its definition of URL processing.
Please stop the "fiction" rhetoric. There's also a lot of fiction in
HTML5 (such as requiring rewriting of \ for all URI schemes), and I
don't see you arguing about *that*.
I do agree that URIs leak, but that doesn't necessarily mean that we can
have the same processing requirements everywhere. For instance, there
are cases where whitespace acts as a delimiter and thus will not be
accepted as URI character, no matter how much you want it to.
