Most browsers do nothing about it -- Firefox, for instance, will just
display the reordered URL, and clicking it will take you to unexpected
places.

While this problem has existed for years, it seems like it's only been
getting attention lately, and perhaps the other browser maintainers are
also scratching their heads about what the right approach to take here
is...
