title: Django 1.11 how can I construct a url lookup with a hash symbol?
body: <p>Here is the constructor in question:</p>
  
  <pre><code>url(r"^app/#events/(?P&lt;pk&gt;\d+)$", views.app, name="app-event"),
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>There is a route to catch <code>app/</code>, so the problem is not that the server doesn't pick up the rest of the url. I know what the browser does there. We use this for links from reverse lookup.</p>
  
  <p>My question is, in Django 1.8 it would leave the string alone, not parsing <code>#</code> to <code>%23</code>. In Django 1.11 it does parse, and I don't want it to.</p>
