Hi Yaron

Two things I observed about Semantic Forms. I am hoping you can comment on at 
least one of them.

1- What triggers the presence of the action 'formedit' on pages ?

I noticed it is available on many pages without form and unavailable on others.

2- I noticed that special characters don't fare well when passed to the 
#forminput query parameter

I have several pages with '&' in their name. I know, it is bad practice, but in 
an environment full of 'R&D' or 'G&O', it is difficult to avoid.

I tried escaping the value, with urlencode or manually, but no matter what I 
use, the string passed to the query parameter is restored back to its full 
value before getting into the form element.

So: if I use '{{#forminput: blah |query=Page[Tag]=R%26D}}

The form displays : Tag : R

The 'unescaping' seems to happen in the intermediate page before getting to the 
form. Once I am on the form, I can edit the URL manually with the escaped value 
and the form reloads correctly.
