I'm not sure. Note that RFC 3986 allows `*` as-is too as far as I can tell: `reg-name` allows `sub-delims`, which includes `*`. `"` is not mentioned so probably disallowed there though.

But since we cannot align it with DNS completely and the partial DNS-alignment is also somewhat weird for opaque URLs, I'd rather leave things as-is as any further change seems risky and not worth it.
