I don't think '{URIpart}localpart' will be significantly
more expensive to split in Java than 'URIpart 
localpart' on some reasonable assumptions about what's 
typical (nested braces in URIpart relatively rare; 
localpart short relative to URIpart etc.)

Maybe we need to see the splitting code for the two 
cases?

Cheers,


Miles
