AFAIK, your current approach is correct.

I think I figured it out for evince: the file name you get from evince
is already URI-encoded.

The attached patch fixes the problem for me, but I do not know if it is
the right thing to do. I assume that the forward slashes in the file
name still have to be encoded so that org-protocol is not confused; the
patch disables URI-encoding for percent signs, so that already
URI-encoded characters pass through unharmed.
