Hi all,

I just needed to read a url that has a ! in it, which I guess I've
never done before, because it doesn't work. e.g.

http://www.nzwebz.co.nz/directory.php?webz=search&amp%3Bsearch_for=yahoo!xtra%20Pro%20Mail
  
! is a valid url char, according to RFC1738, but DECODE-URL chokes on
it. Should net-utils/URL-Parser/path-char include "!"?

  path-char:   insert copy alpha-num "=+-_.;:&$...@%*',~?| []()^"" ; !!! note: 
space allowed

I have to admit, I was also thrown a bit by the use of INSERT here.
The combination of INSERT, COPY, and a string PARAM tricked me into
thinking alpha-num was also a string (yes, I know, it's right there),
and that the result of INSERT on a string was not what was wanted.

What do you think; should you be able to insert a string into a bitset
and have it coerced automatically?
