I'm not sure without going through code, but it would _have_ to look for 
'&' and ';' when parsing parameters, to be RFC compliant, wouldnt it?

Actually, I'm horribly confused now, thinking about it a bit more.
Need to look at code at some point to try and figure out what on earth

This whole url generation thing is a bit of a mess isn't it?
