[issue27089] I think this is a small bug in urlparse.py

[Xiang Zhang]

Xiang Zhang added the comment:

As a general purpose library for url parsing, I think conforming to the existing standard is a good choice.

'http://google.com]' is a malformed URI according to the standard and then I think raising an exception is quite suitable. Of course there are always malformed links in webpages but how to correct them is quite objective. I think catch the exception in application and correct them in your own logic is what you should do.
