Summary: When a URL is copied out of the Adressbar that contains characters disallowed in an URL (unless they are percent-encoded) these characters should be copied percent-encoded, else the resulting URL is invalid, according to RFC 1738 Steps to Reproduce: 1. Visit some URL that contains special characters, for example the Rails UTF-8 checkmark (✓) or umlauts (öäü…) like: https://www.speakerinnen.org/de/search?utf8=%E2%9C%93&q=test&button= 2. Hit enter to load the page 3. Copy the URL out of the Adressbar Expected Results: The URL should be copied percent encoded to be valid: https://www.speakerinnen.org/de/search?utf8=%E2%9C%93&q=test&button= Actual Results: The URL is copied as displayed in the Adressbar, causing it to be invalid since it contains not allowed characters: https://www.speakerinnen.org/de/search?utf8=✓&q=test&button= Version: Safari Version 8.0 (10600.1.25) Notes: This wrong behavior doesn't happen when sharing the URL using the Share Button. Configuration: MacBook Pro (Retina, 13", End 2013) OS X Yosemite 10.10 (14A389)
