    Check continual path against canonicalized version, as URI::Escape and URI disagree on "safe" characters
    
    One would expect that the following statement should be code should be
    silent for all values of $char:
    
        use URI;
        use URI::Escape;
    
        my $uri = URI->new("http://localhost/".uri_escape($char));
        print "oh no!" unless $uri->as_string eq $uri->canonical->as_string;
    
    That is, that URI::Escape and URI would agree on the set of characters
    that need to be escaped.  Unfortunately, URI::Escape defaults to
    escaping as per RFC3986, whereas URI uses the less restrictive
    RFC2732.  The latter allows the following characters which the former
    does not:
    
        ! * ' ( )
    
    Plack::Request returns a ->canonical'd version of the request URI,
    which means that one cannot assume that the URI that a user was
    redirected to is the same as the URI that they later arrive at.  A
    "more correct" solution would be to either not canonicalize the URI in
    Plack::Request, or to change all URI::Escape::uri_escape calls to
    escape only RFC2732-unfriendly characters; however, this fix is
    arguably also correct, and much simpler to implement.
