Re: [whatwg/url] A '@' character in the host part of file URLs (Issue #805)

Ah, my previous comment was premature.  I'll retract it.

Do you mean the solution provided at https://github.com/whatwg/url/issues/805#issuecomment-1841147008 (allowing percent encoding in file: URL host) is sufficient, and we don't need an opaque host in file: URLs? (https://github.com/whatwg/url/issues/599)

I don't have a strong opinion, but to my knowledge, unescaped spaces are still used in file: URLs on Windows.
See https://b.corp.google.com/issues/40256677#comment20 for previous measurements.

So I'm wondering how we should handle unescaped spaces.
