This is just a recipe for massive confusion though.
You're saying if I click on a link with an IRI in a non-UTF8 html page, it means one thing.
But if I copy and paste that link into a text file, and later paste it into a browser, it'll mean something else entirely? Or if I save it to a bookmark using some service?

Yeah, it is a recipe for confusion. Browsers use a workaround: when you copy an URL of a link (using "Copy Link Address" in Chrome or "Copy Link Location" in Firefox) it copies escaped URL, not original URL.
