Re: [w3ctag/spec-reviews] File URI Scheme (#59)

FYI: https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-appsawg-file-scheme-10

    4.  File Name Encoding

    File systems use various encoding schemes to store file and directory
    names.  Many modern file systems store file and directory names as
    arbitrary sequences of octets, in which case the representation as an
    encoded string often depends on the user's localization settings, or
    defaults to UTF-8 [STD63].

    When a file URI is produced, characters not allowed by the syntax in
    Section 2 SHOULD be percent-encoded as characters using UTF-8
    encoding, as per [RFC3986], Section 2.5.

    However, encoding information for file and/or directory names might
    not be available.  In these cases, implementations MAY use heuristics
    to determine the encoding.  If that fails, they SHOULD percent-encode
    the raw bytes of the label directly.

@annevk seem sane(r)?
