Point 2 is:
2) frequent use of characters that are explicitly disallowed
in the URI syntax and thus must be escaped;
I've recently encountered this myself. However, to a large extent
this comes about from the dependence on XPath which uses [] for
predicates, < and > for comparisons, and so forth. I don't think this
could be fixed without losing XPath. Maybe XPath isn't such a good
fit for XPointer after all.
