I agree that displaying them poorly is unfortunate.  However, first I
believe that this should be corrected at a lower layer than in the mode
line code itself.  (In particular, the mode line code you modified is
not even specific to content buffers, meaning that buffer.description
might not even be a URL.)  The other issue is that we need to make sure
that it is always correct to assume the URL is UTF-8 encoded.
Otherwise, we need to figure out under what conditions we can assume
that, and only apply the decoding in those conditions.
