Senthil Kumaran <orsent...@gmail.com> added the comment: I see no problem in going ahead with the suggestion proposed and the patch.
- I checked with RFC3986 Section 2.5 http://labs.apache.org/webarch/uri/rfc/rfc3986.html#identifying-data Relevant line: When a new URI scheme defines a component that represents textual data consisting of characters from the Universal Character Set [UCS], the data should first be encoded as octets according to the UTF-8 character encoding [STD63]; then only those octets that do not correspond to characters in the unreserved set should be percent-encoded. - This is done already in quote and quote_plus. - It just boils down to urlencode also providing the same facility for query strings and that was the point of this bug report. Jeremy, I shall go ahead with this and do the modifications, if required. ---------- assignee: jhylton -> orsenthil nosy: +orsenthil _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue5468> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
