It's very specific about what it escapes.</p> <p style="margin: 10px 0 0 0">The URL option encodes each value individually, and then delimits them. The problem is that the current code assumed the final delimiter would be a semi-colon, so it counted on the delimiter getting encoded within values and not needing to check for any escaping to do. With the change, it would have to assume the delimiter might not get encoded away and so it has to always check for escaping first, and then encode, which means existing applications would suddenly fine '\;' in the decoded values where before they only saw ';'. It's not a compatible change.</p> <p style="margin: 10px 0 0 0">I can't see a rationale for an application smart enough to deal with URL decoding data but dumb enough that you have to change the delimiter, so I can't see it being a major problem.</p> </td>
