Comment (by pento):

 I'm in two minds about this.

 On the one hand, they're valid URLs, and it's not practical for us to take
 care of every printable character (especially now that we support
 multibyte characters in the URL).

 On the other hand, I can't even type that character on my phone keyboard,
 so it wouldn't be possible for me to visit the page directly. As far as
 practicality goes, we could potentially take care of the most common cases
 (which we already do), and add in other cases as they're reported (such as
 in this ticket).
