FYI, this isn't really a justification why TAG review shouldn't happen - the TAG does review additions to existing specs. But no review is needed because this is such a simple change, IMHO.

Gecko: No signal

Not an official signal, but there is a patch up at https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1818269. But this is such a small change, we don't need to request an official position.

WebKit: Positive (https://github.com/whatwg/url/pull/734)

WebKit bug is here, https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=252749#c1 for anyone who is curious.
