KURL will mangle names in mailto URLs if they contain an @ sign

Summary
KURL will mangle names in mailto URLs if they contain an @ sign
Brett Wilson (Google)

KURL searches for @ signs in mailto: URLs, and encodes the following text as a host name. This works for most common mailto URLs, but will break if I have a URL like this: mailto:"Mom @Work" <
mom@work.com
> The quotes and <> need to be escaped, so the real URL would look like this: mailto:%22Mom%
20@Work%22%20%3Cmom@work.com%3E
This is actually handled correctly by at least some mail agents, and if "work" contains any non-ASCII characters, they will be mangled.
