Indeed, I think I confused some other character encoding issues related
to HTTP with the URI issue. The discussion in RFC 3986 is length and
only occasionally clarifying for this issue. That is, it doesn't say
anything definitive like applications are free to use any character
encoding when decoding a URI. But I think it agrees with your
assessment that an application is free to interpret the binary data
however it wants, e.g. http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3986#section-2.1
