I don't use GET with [] very often in Rails, but when I have done so, I have noticed that the [] are always URL-encoded as %xx (don't remember the number offhand). Either [] are illegal in URLs or the browser is playing it safe.

A thought: I reported a weird bug with nested params[] back in January or so (check this list or Lighthouse). Fred patched it, but I don't know when the patch made it into core, if it ever did. Perhaps this is related?
