also continuing yesterdays story, this function doesn't know to deal with utf8 strings, right? in which case we might just as well drop it too? is there a CPAN implementation for that functionality?

I am 99.9% sure there is something on CPAN to do that

CGI::Util::unescape does what we are looking for.

But before you do any tweaks, let's see if we keep it at all.

I'd be more than happy to yank it out completely. Only reason I ported it forward was because it's listed in todo/release.

it's probably always a good idea to discuss first before spending time on things :)

So, what do we do about it? Yank it out, document better alternatives, like CGI::Util::unescape() and possibly implement in Apache/compat.pm as : unescape_url() =~ s/\+/ /g;
