Thanks for this reference, which I hadn't seen before. However, RDF/XML
syntax can only generate URIs when xml:base is relevant, since RDF URIs
are derived from the base URI property, as RDF/XML-Syntax says. So my
conclusion stands: the N-Triple can only contain ASCII characters with
%-escapes, not \u-escapes.
