OK, so you are not actually seeing a code problem in your dispatching/views resulting from this? That is what I was trying to determine: whether your code had to adapt to things coming in percent-encoded, because I didn't think it should, and if it did, I'd want to track down why. If you just don't like how it looks in the browser address bar, then simply avoid having it happen. Specify your url regex expressions so that the trailing slash is optional, that way APPEND_SLASH never has to get involved and issue the redirect. Wouldn't that be easier than trying to change how APPEND_SLASH works?
