18517	URLField does not support url with underscore	guoqiao	nobody	"if your url has a '_' in it, like this:
http://django_compressor.readthedocs.org/
the URLField will complain that it is not a valid url. the problem lies in the '_' symbol. I find in the source code as Following:
class URLValidator(RegexValidator):                                                                 
    regex = re.compile(                                                                             
        r'^(?:http|ftp)s?://' # http:// or https://                                                 
        r'(?:(?:[A-Z0-9](?:[A-Z0-9-]{0,61}[A-Z0-9])?\.)+(?:[A-Z]{2,6}\.?|[A-Z0-9-]{2,}\.?)|' #domain...                                                                
        r'localhost|' #localhost...                                                                 
        r'\d{1,3}\.\d{1,3}\.\d{1,3}\.\d{1,3})' # ...or ip                                           
        r'(?::\d+)?' # optional port                                                                
        r'(?:/?|[/?]\S+)$', re.IGNORECASE)  
the related part is this line:
r'(?:(?:[A-Z0-9](?:[A-Z0-9-]{0,61}[A-Z0-9])?\.)+(?:[A-Z]{2,6}\.?|[A-Z0-9-]{2,}\.?)|'
It's clear that '_' is not included in the pattern. 
I think this is not reaonable for there's a lot of url has a '_' in it.
