Ok, I'm retracting the extra point for Perl, and instead, shaving off 1/2 a point for the built-in Tcl extension package ::uri::urn not advertising it's similar capability. Not to mention that the proc is misnamed "quote" (rather than "escape").
set urichars to "dörk" do shell script "tclsh <<< 'package require uri::urn;puts [uri:: urn::quote { " & urichars & "}]' "
Which of course leads me to prompt for the similar capability in Perl. That is, encode a whole string, not just a unicode character id.
