[Catalyst] Bug in URI ?!

That's why there's the "HTML" filter in TT:

    [% c.uri_for('/foo') | html %]

In an MVC framework, the "View" is where you want to turn things into
HTML, so that's where you should escape the URIs.  If you were
outputting YAML, you wouldn't want to escape the URI in the same way. 
(Note that you'll want to use | xml for escaping in XHTML docs, but in
this case the difference between the two won't manifest itself.)
