When you say "everywhere", are you also including URIs used in media types
like text/uri-list, collection+json, hal+json, RDF/XML, VoiceXML ? Or are
you just interested in defining the behaviour of web browsers?

I'm really not sure how it is reasonable to specify how every possible
user-agent should "process" an invalid URI.
