I'll just throw this out there as an addendum, it's a similar problem but the patch above doesn't solve it. So given the function Slug requests such as /info/myrequest%3F will inevitably pass "myreqeust" to queryDatabaseExample function above instead of the expected "myrequest?" or "myrequest%3F". This is relevant when passing unusual strings, such as in my case when doing a db query against a dictionary database, when your word/request is actually a phrase that ends with a question mark. The intention is to do the search as it is present in the database, the complete phrase with a question mark at the end. urldecoding that truncates the "?" apparently happens between 'onPagesInitialized' and 'onPageInitialized' |

Currently, when routes are being built in Grav, the supplied paths are automatically decoded. Because of this, when they contain special characters, encoded to be used as ordinary parts of the paths, the resulting routes may function differently than expected.
The problem is particularly visible in the case of a question mark, encoded as
%3F. For example, ifredirect_trailing_slashis set totrueinsystem.yamlin a Grav installation on localhost, trying to access http://localhost/test%3F/?foo=bar may be redirected to http://localhost/test??foo=bar, instead of http://localhost/test%3F?foo=bar, wheretest%3Frefers to a page calledtest?. As a result, a page calledtestwill be loaded.This pull request aims to fix that by encoding the routes after work is done on them, although frankly, I am not entirely convinced that the change that I propose, even if free of problems on its own (FWIW, I haven't observed any), completely resolves the described underlying issue. Perhaps it'd be a good idea to take a deeper look into this, if time allows.
