// Query canonicalization in IE
// ----------------------------
// IE is very permissive for query parameters specified in links on the page
// (in contrast to links that it constructs itself based on form data). It does
// not unescape any character. It does not reject any escape sequence (be they
// invalid like "%2y" or freaky like %00).
//
// IE only escapes spaces and nothing else. Embedded NULLs, tabs (0x09),
// LF (0x0a), and CR (0x0d) are removed (this probably happens at an earlier
// layer since they are removed from all portions of the URL). All other
// characters are passed unmodified. Invalid UTF-16 sequences are preserved as
// well, with each character in the input being converted to UTF-8. It is the
// server's job to make sense of this invalid query.
//
// Invalid multibyte sequences (for example, invalid UTF-8 on a UTF-8 page)
// are converted to the invalid character and sent as unescaped UTF-8 (0xef,
// 0xbf, 0xbd). This may not be canonicalization, the parser may generate these
// strings before the URL handler ever sees them.
//
// Our query canonicalization
// --------------------------
// We escape all non-ASCII characters and control characters, like Firefox.
// This is more conformant to the URL spec, and there do not seem to be many
// problems relating to Firefox's behavior.
//
// Like IE, we will never unescape (although the application may want to try
// unescaping to present the user with a more understandable URL). We will
// replace all invalid sequences (including invalid UTF-16 sequences, which IE
// doesn't) with the "invalid character," and we will escape it.
