Re: [whatwg/fetch] Define data: URLs (#579)

I think allowing spaces in those locations is a bug I'd like to fix.  I think I'm willing to make parsing stricter.  If there's something allowed in WebKit but not other browser engines, then it must not be necessary.

If we made everything as permissive as the most permissive browser it would certainly allow the most content to be parsed and be the most compatible with the most content.  I think it would encourage people to make what are currently defined to be malformed data URLs.  I don't think we should do that.  I think if Chrome changed, everyone would change.
