    The arguments to .MR, .MT, and .UR should be prepared for typesetting
    
1. Use special character escape sequences to encode Unicode  basic  Latin  characters  where  necessary, particularly the hyphen-minus.
2. URIs can be lengthy; ... the  application  of  non-printing break point escape sequences \: after each slash (or series thereof), and before each  dot  (or  series  thereof)  is recommended 
3. Consider  adding  break points  before  or after at signs in email addresses, and question marks, ampersands, and number signs in HTTP(S) URIs.
