I quite agree. Those that say that it's correct should be campaigning for a 
documentation change saying "it's not 
possible to pass URL-unsafe parameters (i.e. those that require urlencoding) 
through mod_rewrite". I suspect that the 
vast majority of tutorials, documentation and articles about mod_rewrite are 
broken by this bug - the only reason they 
work as they are is pure luck and simplistic examples.

Me too. Without a patch the choices are : don't use apache, don't use 
mod_rewrite or (shiver) double encode 
everything. I have another workaround that's workable at the moment - instead 
of urlencoding params, I base64-
encode them. Really ugly, but it works.
