  Welcome to a really difficult area ...
When embedded within an XML document, an URI is supposed to be in
an escaped form, i.e. with ' ' encoded as %20. So currently the
libxml URI api since it's used to manipulate URIs embedded into XML
documents only support funcxtion where the escaping is done. Adding
functions handling unescaped forms might be a good idea.
