'#'' is not in the set qchar indirectly defined in BIP 21, and therefore should be escaped. [BIP 21](https://github.com/bitcoin/bips/blob/master/bip-0021.mediawiki#abnf-grammar): > labelparam = "label=" *qchar > messageparam = "message=" *qchar > otherparam = qchar *qchar [ "=" *qchar ] ... > Here, "qchar" corresponds to valid characters of an RFC 3986 URI query > component, excluding the "=" and "&" characters, which this BIP takes > as separators. [RFC 3986 § 3.4](https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc3986#section-3.4): > The query component is indicated by the first question mark ("?") > character and terminated by a number sign ("#") character or by the > end of the URI. [RFC 3986 Appendix A](https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc3986#appendix-A): > pchar = unreserved / pct-encoded / sub-delims / ":" / "@" > query = *( pchar / "/" / "?" ) ... > pct-encoded = "%" HEXDIG HEXDIG > unreserved = ALPHA / DIGIT / "-" / "." / "_" / "~" ... > sub-delims = "!" / "$" / "&" / "'" / "(" / ")" > / "*" / "+" / "," / ";" / "="

We thought we could work around it, but it turns out this change is actually vital to shipping a clean API for a stable Payjoin v2 version. Any way we can get prioritized review on this? Thanks in advance. |

[WIP] squash into parent commit 8ef1284 failing test for escaping of '#' in param values
Although behavior for when encountering RFC 3986 fragments in BIP 21 URIs is not specified, according to RFC 3986 it is unambiguously not query data and therefore should be excluded from BIP 21 query parameters. [WIP] squash with parent commits: c88442f failing test that fragments aren't parsed for params 51f8b88 failing test that fragment separator is ignored

The first two commits add test assertions for existing behavior.
The next commit adds a failing test for parameter values containing '#', which should be escaped. The commit after that addresses this by specifying a more precise character set, causing the test to pass and should therefore be squashed into it before merge to preserve bisectability. For ease of review they were added separately.
The last three commits add two additional failing tests for correct handling of fragment (unescaped #) followed by a fix commit, and should also be squashed. This set of changes might be considered incomplete without a capability to parse RFC 3986 fragments analogous to the
Extrasmechanism, but since this is not specified in BIP 21 arguably this data should be extracted using theurlcrate.
