quoting is only supposed to apply to the path component of a URL. So you'd do it like this:

1) Start unencoded

2) Use urlparse.urlsplit to split the url into components.

3) Quote the correct components (path and query) encoded as UTF-8

quote(component.encode('utf-8'))

4) Use urlparse.urlunsplit to reconstitute the url

5) Use QUrl.fromEncoded
