After discussion, this?

unescaped = %x20-21 / %x23-5B / %x5D-D7FF / %xE000-10FFFF
 ; any Unicode scalar value, except those that must be escaped
 ; (C0 control characters,
 ;  "QUOTATION MARK" [U+0022], and
 ;  "REVERSE SOLIDUS" [U+005C])

The caps and codepoint references make it clear we're only talking about
those precise codepoints.

Others may argue that non-C0 control characters should be prohibited, but
that's a separate backward-compatibility argument from this starting point.
