Re: [whatwg/url] unicode fragments (#150)

@annevk Yeah, I'm planning on looking into this today and trying to get an answer. I seem to recall that it's similar to Gecko, and so I suspect our URL substrate is decoding, and any encoding would need to be done at the Blink glue to that (the KURL and bindings side). On the upside, it makes it easier to change when it would only affect Chrome (our URL code is shared with a growing number of Google products due to Cronet embedding), the downside is it may require a more extensive audit of where we expose those URLs to a web-visible form.

I'm not hearing a request to change address bar behavior, but did I misunderstand the remarks re: FF? My gut is that it seems to make sense to change that too, to ensure authors aren't going to copy/paste?
