Let's brainstorm and try to think of a nice, clean and constructive way of solving this problem. Let's try to ditch the "screw the user because he didn't read RFC foo.bar approach :) The issue is with the arg_separator of incoming URL's. If we think of a nice solution we should probably make it look&feel similar to the solution we will have with URL's which are created. We spoke with Zeev about this. We came to conclusion that there should be a php.ini directives like these: arg_separator.input=";&" arg_separator.output="&" Where defaults are: arg_separator.input="&" arg_separator.output="&"
Sounds like a good solution to me. The places which used the old arg_separator seem to only be in main.c and url_scanner*.c So we should update these and add support for the arg_separator.input. I think that's really OK. Andi
