[erratum xforms11] Processor encoding of anyURI content prior to use

It may seem obvious that all XForms attributes of type xsd:anyURI should 
have a URL encoding applied to them, a la XLink 1.0 Section 5.4, before 
proceeding to URL resolution.  But I think we don't come out and say it in 
places like Section 11.6 on the XForms submission resource and Section 
3.3.2 for instance @src and @resource.

This means we don't end up testing it.
And it makes me wonder how many implementations don't do it.

Can any implementers confirm whether or not they do this encoding?
Can anyone comment on whether they think I am wrong about the obviousness 
of needing to do this encoding?

I know it is pretty clear that we do urlencoded *parameters* just due to 
the serialization type name, but I am talking esp. about the domain name 
and path in the URL, not just the parameters.

One way that this is going to hit us, post XForms 1.1, is in the attempt 
to scale up to IRIs.  My understanding from the I18N group is that 
xsd:anyURI was meant to be "compatible" with IRIs.  My current 
understanding of IRIs is that there is a similar encoding step.
