Gregory P. Smith <g...@krypto.org> added the comment:

FWIW rather than implementing our own URL parsing at all... wrapping a library 
extracted from a compatible-license major browser (Chromium or Firefox) and 
keeping it updated would avoid disparities.

Unfortunately, I'm not sure how feasible this really is.  Do all of the API 
surfaces we must support in the stdlib for compatibility's sake with urllib 
line up with such a browser core URL parsing library?

Something to ponder.  Unlikely something we'll actually do.
