Is it intentionally so that file URIs do not support neither a query nor 
a fragment part?  At least, that is how I read RFC 8089 section 2 in 
combination with RFC 3986 section 3.

(Asking because it can occasionally be convenient to host HTML pages 
with "active content" that interacts with a URI's query part on a local 
file system, and try to access them from a browser with <file:/...?...> 
instead of <http://.../...?...> URIs.)

Thanks,
Stephan
