Hello Org developers,
I'm facing an unexpected behaviour since some days :
When I want to record some link from web sites using Org Capture extension
(https://github.com/sprig/org-capture-extension) for Firefox all my text
and links are encoded like urls.
It's look like the commit #cc7c4a673 removed some url decoding when
the org-protocol url is processed.
See bellow the steps to reproduce :
1) define some templates for org-protocol, mine are bellow
#+begin_src elisp
(setq org-capture-templates '(("L" "Protocol Link" entry (file+olp ,inbox "Web")
,(concat "* %:description :@website:\n"
" Captured On: %a, %U\n"
" %?\n\n"))
("p" "Protocol Selection" entry (file+olp ,inbox
"Web")
,(concat "* %:description :@website:\n"
" Source: %a, %U\n"
" #+begin_quote\n%i\n #+end_quote\n"
" %?\n\n"))))
#+end_src
2) use emacsclient to trigger org-protocol like this
#+begin_src sh
emacsclient -n
"org-protocol://capture?template=p&url=https%3A%2F%2Fgithub.com%2FCruiserX%2Fsha256_plsql&title=CruiserX%2Fsha256_plsql%3A%20SHA256%20PL%2FSQL%20Implementation%20for%20Oracle%2010g%2C11g.&body=SHA256%20PL%2FSQL%20Implementation%20for%20Oracle%2010g%2C11g.%20"
#+end_src
the resulting buffer is :
#+begin_example
**
CruiserX%2Fsha256_plsql%3A%20SHA256%20PL%2FSQL%20Implementation%20for%20Oracle%2010g%2C11g.

#+begin_quote
SHA256%20PL%2FSQL%20Implementation%20for%20Oracle%2010g%2C11g.%20
#+end_quote
#+end_example
I think that one possible fix could be to rollback one part of the git commit
#cc7c4a673 like
in the patch bellow.
What do you think ?
