decodeURIComponent doesn't do the correct thing with query parameter
keys or values. Specifically, it leaves '+' as '+' when it should be
converting them to spaces as that's the specification. When browsers
submit HTML forms via GET, the values are encoded using
the 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded' mime type which converts
spaces to '+'. decodeURIComponent() will then give incorrect results
on components of the query string.
See: http://unixpapa.com/js/querystring.html for a description of the
problem.
