Usually you will only have to do this once, because relative URLs resolved from
that file will use the same protocol.
+ URLs may contain encoded characters using the 'percent-encoding' scheme
+ specified by \l {http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3986}{RFC 3986}. These characters
+ will be preserved within properties of type \c url, to allow QML code to
+ construct precise URL values. An exception to this rule is the preemptive
+ decoding of directory-separator characters (\c '/') - these characters are decoded
+ to allow the URL to be correctly classified.
+
+ For example, a local file containing a '#' character, which would normally be
+ interpreted as the beginning of the URL 'fragment' element, can be accessed by
+ encoding the characters of the file name:
+
+ \qml
+ Image { source: encodeURIComponent("/tmp/test#1.png") }
+ \endqml
