I don't think this is a requirement though, looking at RFC3986, "+" is 
a reserved character, protected from percent encoding and "therefore 
safe to be used by scheme-specific and producer-specific algorithms for 
delimiting data subcomponents within a URI." So, + only needs to be 
percent encoded if it otherwise has a special meaning in the file:// 
scheme. Since + doesn't I don't believe it needs to appear in an escaped 
form.
