Of course not directly, I use it already long time on my webpage and it
works with previous Lynx versions.

First obvious error is that Lynx violates HTML specs here trying to parse

Second thing is not so obvious, i.e. are &xxx; entities even allowed in
URLs? I don't know, not have specs nearby....
