Thanks.  Seems useful.  I made a few cosmetic tweaks and it looks almost
ready to me; however, documentation is missing.  I added a stub; can you
please complete that?

To answer Arthur Zakirov's question: yes, the standard recommends
("should") to use uppercase characters:

:  For consistency, URI producers and
:  normalizers should use uppercase hexadecimal digits for all percent-
:  encodings.

Thanks,
