> The main problem I see is that, as far as I understand actually, django
compares the url in its url-decoded form against each possible regex
pattern. So the problems we are encountering with '/' encoded url value
(%2F). Though I could be wrong 'cause I've not went to check django code.
The other possible work around, is to url-encode twice the different parts
of the url (so that '/' would be compared as '%2F' when compared to all
the url regex patterns and then no more problem also) that you want to
reach and then to decode them once in the view.
Though it seems rather special.
