Description Ralf Sternberg CLA 2014-01-01 09:41:58 EST 
Slashes are commonly used in URL fragments used for browser navigation, e.g. example.org/articles/#foo/bar. According to RFC 3986 [1], slashes are permitted in an URL fragment. However, in the Webclient they are escaped by encodeURLComponent(). I suggest that we add an exception for slashes, e.g. encodeURLComponent( state ).replace( /%2F/g, "/" );
