Another big one I'm aware of is the issue of how to treat '\\' in URLs.
In the specification this is resolved in favor of how
WebKit/Chromium/Trident go about it. Which is to treat it identically
to "/" but flag it with a warning in the console, if applicable.
What should we use as tactic for fixing URL parsing?
a) Have side-by-side implementations as with HTML and slowly switch
over callers.
b) Incrementally fix the existing URL parser (file bugs on specific
issues such as "\")
The second approach seems like less work, but of course we should hide
changes behind pref kill switches in case things go wrong with web compat.
