Mads Kiilerich <m...@kiilerich.com> added the comment: FWIW, I don't think it is a good idea to escape automatically. It will change the behaviour in a non-backward compatible way for existing applications that pass encoded urls to this function.
I think the existing behaviour is better. The documentation and the failure mode for passing URLs with spaces could however be improved. ---------- nosy: +kiilerix _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue13359> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
