App crashes when clicking on link with special characters (iOS)

Consider the following code

import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
import 'package:flutter_html_view/flutter_html_view.dart';

void main() => runApp(MyApp());

class MyApp extends StatelessWidget {

  final String html1 = '<a href="https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taubenschwänzchen">Taubenschwänzchen</a>';
  final String html2 = '<a href="https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taubenschw%C3%A4nzchen">Taubenschwänzchen Replaced</a>';

  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return MaterialApp(
      title: 'Flutter Demo',
      theme: ThemeData(
        primarySwatch: Colors.blue,
      ),
      home: Scaffold(body: SafeArea(child: HtmlView(data: '$html1\n$html2'))
    ));
  }
}

Clicking on both links works fine in Android. Clicking on the first link causes a crash in iOS with the following exception:
