  Description     : URL sanitization to prevent script-scheme injection

  This library sanitizes URL strings so they can be handled safely in contexts
  such as link targets and redirects.
  .
  It inspects input for dangerous schemes such as "javascript:" and normalizes
  common obfuscation tricks, including mixed-case spellings, embedded control
  characters, and HTML character references. When a URL is considered unsafe, it
  returns a neutral value ("about:blank") rather than passing the original
  string through.

This library is a dependancy of Home Assistant, the Python smart home platform.

I plan to maintain it as part of the Home Assistant team.
