Yes, apparently if you put a "+" in the string that is
the argument to huchentoot:url-decode, it turns into
a space.  However, I don't think it is legal/valid to
have a "+" character in an encoded URI.

Do you know of a string (call it s) such that

(equalp (hunchentoot:url-decode (hunchentoot:url-encode s)) s)

is false?
