Re: [whatwg/url] "." and ".." filenames stripped (#208)

The details of URLs mapping to filenames on the server is not governed by the URL standard. The point of the URL standard is to determine what URL gets sent to the server, and as @annevk points out, no browser will send those to the server.

If you want to request a file named . or .. on the server, you can use some other kind of system besides the naive one (e.g., `?filename=.`).
