%-encoding of the slashes in a URL doesn't always work. WebKit seems to presume
the first two should always be added, and fails if the slash following the
domain is encoded.

e.g. the following four URLs are equivalent:

http:%2F%2F%77%65%62%2E%6E%69%63%6B%73%68%61%6E%6B%73%2E%63%6F%6D%2F%62%6F%6F%6F%6B%73%2F%67%65%74%74%69%6E%67%2D%67%6F%6C%64
http://%77%65%62%2E%6E%69%63%6B%73%68%61%6E%6B%73%2E%63%6F%6D%2F%62%6F%6F%6F%6B%73%2F%67%65%74%74%69%6E%67%2D%67%6F%6C%64
http://%77%65%62%2E%6E%69%63%6B%73%68%61%6E%6B%73%2E%63%6F%6D/%62%6F%6F%6F%6B%73%2F%67%65%74%74%69%6E%67%2D%67%6F%6C%64

but only the latter two work. I can't tell if the encoded one causes a cache
miss or not. Someone might want to check that it doesn't.
