Comment:

 I'm going to echo @mdawaffe here

 We should encode user_logins if needed, and if `..` is causing issue, we
 should either change affected user_logins (as harsh as that sounds),
 disable that check for this URL, or find a way to encode it (unfortunately
 it looks like `%2e` triggers the check too).

 I'd rather have this broken for users with insane user_logins than have it
 broken for those wish clashing user_nicenames - there's about 14k users
 with slugs which don't match tracs current slug generation, about 500 with
 `..` in their logins, not going to check spaces but they're easily dealt
 with by encoding them.
