[issue23328] urllib2 fails for proxy credentials that contain a '/' character

[Martin Panter]

Martin Panter added the comment:

To comply with the RFC on URLs, whoever is setting the environment variable _should_ do the encoding, and then Python will _decode_ it. But I suspect this case is more about how Python should handle an environment variable that hasn’t been encoded correctly.
