Message93697
I can't think of too many specific scenarios. It just seems like a non-
trivial behavior change (or rather, it is trivial but with possibly far
reaching ramifications).
One issue I see is that the ticket morphed from just dealing with space
characters to many special characters. quote_plus() probably would have
handled the space issue cleanly.
The other issue I'm concerned about is that there is no testing of non-
ascii URLs (or at least I don't see any).
Finally, a netloc like 'www.g oogle.com' would be converted invalidly to
'www.g%20oogle.com' which would then be forwarded to an actual HTTP
request.
I can't point to anything too specific - more of just a feeling that
this ticket is already 5 1/2 years old and maybe things should be left
as-is and enhancement made only to Python 3.x. Of course, I'm really
just a new Python convert so I don't have massive experience here by any
means. |
