6129	"""url"" template-tag incorrectly encodes tilde (~) character in urls"	moe	Pete Crosier	"The ""url"" template-tag encodes the tilde (~) character in urls
although it is a legal (""unreserved"") URL character since
1995, cf. RFC2396.

RFC2396 (1995): http://www.cs.tut.fi/~jkorpela/rfc/2396/full.html
RFC3986 (2005): http://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc3986.txt

This causes uglyness in the adressbar when a django app 
wants to support the common http://server/~username/ URL-style.

Django should stick to the RFC and only encode characters
that must be encoded.
