Even if I am still not that happy with this query-string parsing/repacking stuff I'd commit it if someone contributes a patch.
I'll help with dealing with the details, but have not much time to do it myself yet. We have to figure out: * do we rely on url-escape strings with this url parameters too? (I'd say no - except for the "&" character itself) * if we do - how to deal with the used charset? (I'd say we expect them to be in UTF-8 then, regardless of the charset of the other parameters) * do we strip these parameters off so that we have a query string without these special fields when sending to the remote host? (I'd say yes) * enhance the filename so that we have the queryString (as now) and a remoteQueryString which will be passed to the remote server * use the new remoteQueryString e.g. with the http filesystem implementation. It would be great if someone could open a JIRA ticket at least that we don't loose the request. Thanks!
