FWIW, one thing that I like is to think of query parameters as
"adjectives" that modify the meaning/interpretation of the noun or as
"adverbs" modifying the action.
Hope this helps,

The choice of not exposing the query string and the fragment part of the
target resource URI was deliberate.
The reason is that the query string is often composed of a sequence of
parameters ("key=value") that can appear in any order while keeping the same
semantics.
/accounts?balance_less_than=2000&status=active
is equivalent to:
/accounts?status=active&balance_less_than=2000
So, we encourage developers to deal with the query part inside the Handlers
(or using the ExtractFilter, to be renamed Extractor) using the Form class
(via getQueryAsForm() method).
Thanks,
Jerome
