Description

URIs with <> in them can cause trouble with some URL parsers, thus the links to thread.html should make use of URI encoding when creating permalinks, to avoid this.

Research direction

Start by locating the code that creates links to thread.html and trace how the thread URI is inserted into the permalink. Check the existing permalink behavior with URIs containing <> and verify that generated thread links use URI encoding without breaking normal URIs.
