Comment (by aaugustin):
I've created a little experiment to showcase the bug:
{{{
# Put this in a file called experiment13260.py and run it with:
# django-admin.py runserver --settings=experiment13260
from django.conf.urls import patterns, url
from django.http import HttpResponse
from django.template import Context, Template
DEBUG = True
ROOT_URLCONF = 'experiment13260'
SECRET_KEY = 'whatever'
TEMPLATE = Template("""<html>
<head>
<title>Experiment with Django ticket #13260</title>
</head>
<body>
<p>Put something with special characters in the URL!</p>
<p>Argument passed to the view: <b>{{ arg }}</b></p>
<p>Reversed URL: <b><a href="{% url 'view' arg %}">{% url 'view' arg
%}</a></b></p>
</body>
</html>""")
urlpatterns = patterns('',
url(r'^(.*)/?$', lambda req, arg:
HttpResponse(TEMPLATE.render(Context({'arg': arg}))), name='view'),
)
}}}
If you go to http://localhost:8000/%252525/, every time you click the
"Reversed URL" link, you lose a 25 in the URL.
