IRIs are a distinct thing with a separate spec, and existing users might expect them to fail to parse. So, if we do support this, we should probably do it as a separate entry point. Also, you'd probably want the service of an IRI to URI conversion, so that you can actually send it in things like HTTP requests. So, I'm thinking of this as more of a feature request than a bug, and it might require a bit of doing to get implemented.
