Undertow does actually handle this in theory, although I am not sure
if anyone has ever tried to use it. Basically you have the option to
delay decoding the URI until the webapp is selected (so context paths
need to be provided in the raw encoded form), and can then decode the
URI to whatever encoding you wish. This is not something we recommend
though, and certainly not something we would want in the standard.
