Uli, thank you for your response. I'm confused though. The ampersand is a regular element of the URL and a separator of 2 querystring variables. If it was encoded as you suggest, then the target server wouldn't recognize those as 2 separate variables (in case of Google Web Fonts those variables are "family" and "subset").
