I support this.
Do we need to do anything beyond reference the following text from the
XML Schema spec? It already mentions XLink escaping, and the
requirement that the result be a valid URI:
> The ·lexical space· of anyURI is finite-length character sequences
> which, when the algorithm defined in Section 5.4 of [XML Linking
> Language] is applied to them, result in strings which are legal URIs
> according to [RFC 2396], as amended by [RFC 2732].
>
> NOTE: Spaces are, in principle, allowed in the ·lexical space· of
> anyURI, however, their use is highly discouraged (unless they are
> encoded by %20).
The XLink escaping algorithm referenced above is described here:
