Be careful; depending on what you call "Web content". For instance, I
would consider the Atom feed content (RFC4287) as "Web content", but
Atom really uses IRIs, and doesn't need workarounds for broken IRIs in
content (as far as I can tell).
Are you sure browser implementations of feeds reject non-IRIs in some way?
I would expect them to use the same URL handling everywhere.
Don't leak out workarounds into areas where they aren't needed.
I'm not convinced that having two ways of handling essentially the same
thing is good.
