I was working from
http://www.w3.org/International/O-URL-code.html
Applying the patch fixed the problem as reported in bug 22666. I am happy to have another look at this. Can you point me in the direction of a better reference?
Well, -1 because:
1) Everyone ignores this standard
2) Your encoding will apply to *all* parameters, not just URL parameters; you have to patch the Parameters class for your patch to be correct (I would still vote -1, but at least it wouldn't break the specification)
3) It is extremely likely that people expect all parameters to have the same encoding, regardless of what that w3c spec says; if the servlet spec writes in big bold somewhere that the URL is always UTF8 (which would likely break interoperability with a lot of HTTP clients - possibly all), then it's different
