FWIW, my LGTM for the original launch was contingent on a kill switch
(see down thread). So hopefully we had one. :)

I think the previous launch did not require using the kill switch, but
I'm fine being cautious here. I don't have much a gut feeling or data
to suggest otherwise. I'll let Hayato chime in though.

I think putting this behind a kill switch is a good idea - like
Daniel said, it's hard to judge the risk with just the info in the CL.

crbug.com/452084005 <http://crbug.com/452084005> is one holdover
that was accidentally not updated by this work. We still decode
"%2E" (dot) into ".". There is an external contributor

Question for Blink owners: Does this bug fix require a kill switch?

Thanks for the LGTMs. I appreciate it.
Let me implement and ship with a feature flag so that we can
have a kill switch.

Compatibility is nice.
LGTM3, but note Mike's request

I'm having a hard time assessing the risk, despite the
very low usage (it has doubled since the original email
was sent - but still very low) and other browsers
shipping it.
That said, LGTM2 % having a base::Feature we can use as
a killswitch, in case we discover something we didn't
anticipate.

LGTM1. It seems to have very low risk.

There are risks. Please see the WIP CL's
description for details
(https://crrev.com/c/4607744).
I'd like to collect feedback about possible risks
widely through this thread.
The usage (Canary): 0.000106%
(URL.Path.UnescapeEscapedChar
<https://uma.googleplex.com/p/chrome/timeline_v2/?sid=1bb9e227dc4889fd2efbf5755d256c62>).
This usage is not specific to any particular use
case and can be considered a theoretical upper
bound. The actual breakage is likely much lower
than this number.
Will this feature be supported on all six
Blink platforms (Windows, Mac, Linux,
Chrome OS, Android, and Android WebView)?
Yes
Is this feature fully tested by
web-platform-tests
<https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromium/src/+/main/docs/testing/web_platform_tests.md>?
Yes
