I'm sorry I don't get what you're actually complaining about. http://www.gwtproject.org/javadoc/latest/com/google/gwt/http/client/URL.html Only the deprecated methods have that note in their javadoc, and the behavior was historically meant for query-string processing (for the majority of cases where the query-string uses key-value pairs with an encoding similar to application/x-www-form-urlencoded, as with HTML forms with method="GET"), non-deprecated methods are clear about their intent and expected usage: encodeQueryString vs. encodePathSegment.
