There's apparently a long history of URL parsing being slightly different between different browsers (eg. see issue 123004, issue 257354 , issue 275675 ).
AnneVK@ is working hard to try to drive consensus between implementations and get that captured in the URL spec, but there are probably some cases where the right thing to do is try to change chromium's behavior to match the consensus of other browsers. For example:
https://github.com/whatwg/url/issues/148
https://github.com/whatwg/url/issues/150
Is there someone who can look into the state of interop here, engage with the community on trying to get consensus, and at least evaluate what goals we should set for chromium spec conformance?
