How window.location.host of application should be treated, case insensitive or sensitive? about app-uri HOT 4 CLOSED

What about all other normalizations that apply to regular IRIs, like character or percent-encoding ? Should we mention somewhere that app URI should comform to some specific URI standard, or is it too complicated?

I want to layer the app:// URI spec on top of http://url.spec.whatwg.org. In theory, that should address all of the above.

I don't want us to have to special case this scheme, particularly not the host part.

@jmajnert I think the questions you had should be addressed in the URL spec - I don't know how to answer them.

Closing for now and let's see if this comes up as an issue in practice. Otherwise, we can add tests for this.
