Right, sorry, what I meant was that a user could type [[C++]], and the
parser could intelligently translate that into C%23%23 when looking up
the actual page.

All that being said, it would not be impossible

The reserved characters can be represented via % hex escape sequences
(such as space being %20), if this was something that people wanted
to fix. It would mean that the parser for links would have to know
how to do the proper translations.
I don't know of any real technical reqasons why this couldn't be made
to work.
It's a human issue: typing [[C%23]] is not really wiki.
Also, % code are currently decoded as it is, iirc, and used sometimes
for interwiki links.
