Debian wishlist bug 104122

----
It would be extremly useful to have a 'quirks' mode which would do the
following (for instance, other things can be added):
- If a URL with \ characters gets a 404, try again with s/\\/\// (fixes
for
works-only-in-IE URLs) (in 'auto' quirks mode)
- If a URL has \ characters, unconditionally s/\\/\// (same as
above, when the
server answers with something other than 404 for missing
objects) (in
'forced' quirks mode)
- s/ // (eats whitespace; for typo fixing) (only in 404 for
'auto', always in
'forced')
Of these, the only I've felt a need for is the first
(change \ to / on 404 and
retry). Maybe I'll code a fix.
