Re: [whatwg/url] Should we unescape characters in path? (#606)

Related issues: #369 and #87. Quick questions, probably discussed there:

- Which set of characters (code points?) would then be unescaped (aka. the unreserved set)
- What then to do with invalid sequences becoming valid sequences after unescaping, such as e.g. `http://example/%1%61` 

I think #87 gives the reasons for not doing this. 

It is still important to define the semantics of escape sequences, for server-side URL handling and for interoperability though.  Currently the standard does not discuss that.
