Percent-encoded sequences of more than one octet will not get touched by pct-decode in the current implementation, so you will not get double escaping. Percent-encoded sequences of one octet will get decoded if they fall in the "unstructured" char-set, as per RFC 3986.

OK, now I'm thoroughly confused.  The percent-encoding is context sensitive?

How can this not be broken?

We need to make the design clear:

  * What can be constructed directly with make-uri.

  * What can be parsed, and how this is passed to make-uri.

  * How URIs are represented internally.

  * How URIs are encoded on output.

It sounds like uri-common and uri-generic are doing different things here.
