Description (last modified by mjethani)

Background

A web page can contain CSS selectors containing non-ASCII characters. Currently abp2blocklist filters out any rules containing non-ASCII characters, even though Adblock Plus supports Unicode characters. This means a web page author can circumvent ABP element hiding by simply adding non-ASCII characters to their class names and element IDs.

What to change

Simply do not filter out rules containing non-ASCII characters, as Safari does support such rules.

For non-ASCII characters that appear in the path part of the URL, encode them using encodeURI.
