Oh, that's cool.  I've been fine with this being a request for a needed
function to quote and unquote full urls rather than a bug in urlopen().

I think iri's are a distraction here, though.  The RFC for iris even
says that specifications that call for uris and do not mention iris
should not take iris.  So there's definitely a need for a function to
quote a full uri.
