Comment:

 > I'm tempted to suggest the best quickest fix is to enable
 BP_ENABLE_USERNAME_COMPATIBILITY_MODE where we already handle URL
 decoding.

 Good point.  We (or a plugin) would still need to apply `urldecode()` to
 various spots that generate a user profile URL so the member profile will
 resolve properly:
 `add_filter( 'bp_get_member_permalink', 'urldecode' );`

 Needs further auditing.
