It's not very important for me atcually. I sent in a bugreport, and hoped
it to be fixed, or not, depending on the ressources available (most
probably time).

I didn't expect, however, to get these kind of replies, completely
neglecting the bug.

Well, I told you about the relevant documentation. Since you repeatedly
ignored it and _still_ hold to your (Wrong, btw) claims, I must suppose
you are clueless.

It's not bad to be clueless. What's bad is to be clueless and trying to
educate other people about it. That is outright dangerous, as other
people might actually believe that, spreading misinformation.

It wouldn't have taken that long for you to understand the issue at all,
I am sure. I am also quite sure that understanding the issue and writing
a much short repsonse (or not a response at all, I didn't ask for one,
or directing me to the right address to report bugs etc..) would not
only have saved both our time, it would also have given you more useful
knowledge, which is never a bad idea.

Much more than I asked for. I still recommend reading rfc1738 and 2822.
When you work with HTML it's always useful to know what a URL *really* is.
