Actually, since it's a DTD based validator I don't believe there is -any-
way for it to check the validity of a URI with respect to encoding.
Certainly this code
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN"
            "http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40/loose.dtd">
<html>
<head>
    <title>Untitled</title>
    <meta name="generator" content="BBEdit 5.1.1">
</head>
<body>
<a href="!@#$%^&*()_+|:<>?!@#$%^&*()_+|:<>/\\/" target="_self"></a>
</body>
</html>
validates quite nicely.
