How on earth URI escaping could be such a definitional mess I can't imagine. For once this isn't the XSL/XQuery group's fault: the core URI specs are hmm odd at best (although the recent revision will probably make things a bit better in the long run). Why does URI %hh escaping mechanism use an "escape character" that is not itself reserved for escaping and can be used to stand for itself at the whim of the author... In the case of data: URIs I'm not sure it makes much difference which you use, the main difference is whether URI syntax characters like / are escaped or not, but as data: is not hierarchical, even if / isn't escaped it won't be taken as a path separator (I think).
