Hi Oleg,
If you look at :
https://bz.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=60120
You can see that this encoding can break some applications.

If I read https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Percent-encoding#The_
application.2Fx-www-form-urlencoded_type


Which references https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc1630
I understand @ is safe.

Regards
