The link you mention only deals with the DNS side of things, this issue is specifically not about that, it's about the URI/URL side of things which is a very important distinction in this case.

I'm also not entirely sure I agree with the sentiment of "it's a mess anyway" so lets ignore the RFC. There's an RFC for a reason and if more implementations started to behave accordingly the mess would clear itself up instead of becoming even more of a nightmare.

I can agree with the practical over strict approach though.
