I do not think these are worth considering, there are existing technolo-
gies that use them precisely because they have been forbidden to distin-
guish resource identifiers from other things in protocol elements, e.g.
XML Schema uses a "##identifier" syntax and "CURIEs" use "[identifier]".
Retroactively allowing them would do little more than cause confusion.
