This code is very old (about 3 years) so I don't have in mind from where
exactly I get the information, but the '+' as escape for space is commonly
used. A quick test with IE 5.01 shows that entering "a b c" in a formfield
is send as a+b+c.
Anyway as far as I see it won't hurt to change + to %20 on the ouput side,
so, if nobody speaks against it, I include your patch in the next release
