I have a cross-wiki @import in my personal common.js and common.css pages (on all WMF public wikis) – e.g. https://www.mediawiki.org/w/index.php?title=User:Jdforrester_(WMF)/common.css&oldid=605983 – of the form: @import url('//meta.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=User:Jdforrester (WMF)/global.css&action=raw&ctype=text/css'); Until recent changes unveiled this bug, this worked fine, but now the first parenthesis aborts the import (so it runs as "@import url('//meta.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=User:Jdforrester (WMF"), which unsurprisingly 404s. I can fix this for myself with a bot edit to 1600 pages (fun) to URL-encode the parentheses, but this regression should actually be fixed.
Not a regression, it never did, but previous that was not applied to @imports and thus no one ever noticed. This is rather low-priority, given that normal people don't have parentheses in their names and don't have @import rules in their personal CSS.
