The URI shouldn't contain non-ascii characters... the application should URI encode them to %5b and %5d in it's responses. If you manually type non-ascii characters in the address bar, the browser should (ideally) also URI encode them. What is the rule you're using where you get an error? What are you doing in the rule when you get the error? Could you encode the URI using 'HTTP::path [URI::encode [HTTP::path]]' before trying to parse it?
