Comment(by sjamaan):

 For completeness, here's the way uri-common parses the URI in a slightly
 more human-readable form, which I think is correct:

 {{{
 full uri
 
http://example.com/:@-._~!$&;'()*+,=;:@-._~!$&'()*+,=:@-._~!$&'()*+,==?/?:@-._~!$'()*+,;=/?:@-

 scheme         http
 port           80   (implicitly derived via scheme)
 host           example.com
 path           /:@-._~!$&'()*+,=;:@-._~!$&'()*+,=:@-._~!$&'()*+,==
 query name 1   /?:@-._~!$'()* ,
 query value 1  (empty: the key is immediately followed by =;)
 query name 2   (empty: the preceding ; is immediately followed by an =
 sign)
 query value 2  /?:@-._~!$'()* ,
 query name 3   (either empty or "=")
 query value 3  (either empty or "="; this is mutually exclusive with the
 name due to the ";==" construct)
 fragment       /?:@-._~!$&'()*+,;=
 }}}

 This is when you accept the semicolon as a separator.  Otherwise the split
 would be more similar to what's quoted in the blog post.

 It could be argued whether the path should be further split up; this
 depends on whether the library supports the nonstandard matrix path
 components.  If it does, I think this would be split up trivially like so:

 {{{
 path                   /:@-._~!$&'()*+,=
 path parameter name    :@-._~!$&'()*+,
 path parameter value   :@-._~!$&'()*+,==
 }}}

 That's identical to what the blog post said, except for the trailing bit
 of the path parameter value that got chopped off due to the query string
 parsing.
