HTTP 1.0&1.1 URL safe characters conflict with HTML?

Reviewing not quite current HTTP 1.0 and 1.1 drafts I noticed that the 
plus sign (+) character is included as a safe character.

This would seem to be in conflict with current practice and the HTML
RFC where the + is part of the url encoding scheme to represent blanks.
