Re: [whatwg/url] [Proposal] Specify a fragment-directive meant for UA instructions (#445)

Thanks, I've opened whatwg/html#4868

One additional thing to point out: the `##` delimiter is somewhat arbitrary. It's nice because it means we can specify it alone in a URL (e.g. `example.com##directive`). The downside, as noted above, is that it isn't valid today. Does anyone have a sense of how brittle existing tools would be to making this change? I've tried the major browsers and they all seem to cope. Are there popular URL parser libraries I should try out?

As an alternative, we could find (via browser metrics, HTTPArchive) a alternative delimiter that's valid but rarely used. E.g. `https://example.com#fragment::targetText=foo`
