For Python (a common programming language), this is not true, standard
library's urlparse has no problem:
% ./test-urlparse.py gemini://g?meaux.bortzmeyer.org:8965/caf?\?foo=bar
Host name: g?meaux.bortzmeyer.org
Port: 8965
Path: /caf?
Query: foo=bar
% cat test-urlparse.py
#!/usr/bin/env python3
import sys
import urllib.parse
for url in sys.argv[1:]:
components = urllib.parse.urlparse(url)
print("Host name: %s" % components.hostname)
if components.port is not None:
print("Port: %s" % components.port)
print("Path: %s" % components.path)
if components.query != "":
print("Query: %s" % components.query)
