Hi List,

I'm trying to use the REST API to enable/disable users, but running into an 
issue when the username contains punctuation like @ or . (if the username is an 
email for example).

If I create a user 't...@test.com' and do this:

curl -H 'Content-Type: application/json' -X POST 
[http://admin:geoserver@localhost:9090/geoserver/rest/security/usergroup/user/test%40test..com](http://admin:geoserver@localhost:9090/geoserver/rest/security/usergroup/user/)
 -d '{"org.geoserver.rest.security.xml.JaxbUser":{"userName": 
"t...@test.com","password": "test123","enabled": false}}'

I get this:

URI:/geoserver/rest/security/usergroup/user/test%40test..com
STATUS:404
MESSAGE:Provided username does not exist: test@test.
SERVLET:dispatcher

You can see I already did some experimenting with the url to encode/escpae the 
'@' with '%40' and the '.' with a second '.' - but I can't figure a way to make 
it recognise the whole username. Is there a workaround or is this a bug?

Thanks
Gus
