I wonder if the OP is calling the forward slashes (of just slashes or
solidus) in his example with back slash (reverse solidus), like much of the
media does (curse Microsoft for using back slash as a path separator). The
%2F of which he speaks does go with slash. (Back slash would be %5C.)
Url-quoting is a scheme to replace characters which might not be
transmitted correctly as part of a UR. Slash has no such problem. You may
as well ask why the letter 't' doesn't get replaced.
If you have a separate reason to quote slashes, you can use the replace
method of strings:
reverse(...).replace('/', '%2f')
But you don't need (or want) to do that to get a URL that will access the
given view.
