The HTTP spec doesn't say: it points to RFC 822.
- From RFC 822, section 3.1.2:
"Once a field has been unfolded, it may be viewed as being com-
posed of a field-name followed by a colon (":"), followed by a
field-body, and terminated by a carriage-return/line-feed.
The field-name must be composed of printable ASCII characters
(i.e., characters that have values between 33. and 126.,
decimal, except colon). The field-body may be composed of any
ASCII characters, except CR or LF. (While CR and/or LF may be
present in the actual text, they are removed by the action of
unfolding the field.)"
So the fields themselves must be in ASCII. Since there's a provision for
encoding other stuff in ASCII (%-codes for URLs), you should be able to
do this.
Unfortunately, I can't find anywhere in the spec that says which
encoding to use in URLs for % HEX HEX encoding.
