So how does a wrong answer to a wrong question help you?

The characters that your python app encodes are *not* URL safe. They may
however be considered safe in other URI variants and for some obscure
reason the LMS devs chose to not obey the strict HTML rules for internal
used file references but write their own transcode module. To match that
result you must do the same and the sensible thing is to use the already
existing module like you are doing now. This also means that it is
pointless to let your python app generate URI encoded strings in the
HTML body as all this does is require you to decode them before being
able to use the correct encoder.
