----------------------------------------------------------------------
[~peterhalicky] HttpComponents approach to various RFC interpretations has
always been simple: be lenient as a consumer, be strict as a producer.
In this case however I do have to admit the way URIBuilder handles `query` and
`fragment` component encoding is inconsistent and I can accept this as a bug in
5.3.x. Any further changes will have to be done as a change request in 5.4.x.

> Key: HTTPCORE-778
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HTTPCORE-778
> Project: HttpComponents HttpCore
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: HttpCore
> Affects Versions: 5.3.3
> Reporter: Peter Halicky
> Priority: Minor
> Fix For: 5.3.4, 5.4-alpha1
>
>
> URI fragment is encoded in URIBuilder using:
> {code:java}
> PercentCodec.encode(sb, this.fragment, this.charset); {code}
> (line 401, end of buildString method)
> This encodes all characters except UNRESERVED using the percent-format.
> As per (obsoleted) RFC2396, URI fragment should use URIC safe-chars.
> As per RFC3986, quite a bit more characters should not be encoded:
> {code:java}
> pct-encoded = "%" HEXDIG HEXDIG
> unreserved = ALPHA / DIGIT / "-" / "." / "_" / "~"
> sub-delims = "!" / "$" / "&" / "'" / "(" / ")" / "*" / "+" / "," / ";" /
> "="
> pchar = unreserved / pct-encoded / sub-delims / ":" / "@"
> fragment = *( pchar / "/" / "?" ) {code}
> Note that URIBuilder in httpclient 4.5.13 conforms to at least the old
> RFC2396, as it uses URIC set of safe characters (i.e. this is in fact a
> regression).
