Re: [whatwg/url] Support IPv6 zone identifiers (#392)

This needs to be reopened because firefox is citing this bug as blocking its own fix of the issue.

This issue is holding up the entire IPv6 project, in case that isn't clear.

There's a lot of game playing around these issues because a lot of money is at stake when it comes to who controls domain names, and this is a way to break domain name systems that compete with ICANN & CAs.

So the developers of browsers are pretending that this is complicated when it isn't.

It's actually very simple and there's exactly one way to implement it which is very obvious.  But implementing it that way is going to step on some toes of people who don't want IPv6 global connectivity and a new p2p internet foundation to happen.  It goes against a lot of business models.
