% Isn't url decoded correctly

[d0liver]

Specifically, if http://somewhere/path is a route then curl http://somewhere/path?q=%25 will cause this.params.query.q to be undefined instead of '%'.

I see this as well

Also running into this error. The percent symbol appears to be decoded twice. I've set up a simple repro on Meteorpad: http://meteorpad.com/pad/7ArsrxRXhhvux73tE/Iron:Router%20Query%20Param%20Test

If you submit the form in the Meteorpad with a value of Bob%20Loblaw, you get a querystring encoding of Bob%2520Loblaw. Expected behavior would be for Iron:Router to decode this back into Bob%20Loblaw. Instead, Iron:Router appears to process the string twice and returns Bob Loblaw.

I have the same undefined problem. When my route has something like "etc/?someParam=otilde%F3" the entire params.query becomes undefined, breaking everything that ever uses the link's parameters. How is this issue a year old?

A solution until this is fixed:

use:
this.request.query - decoded once

Instead of:
this.params.query - decoded twice and returns undefined on encoded params
