I don't think this necessary has anything to do with your URL scheme.
It has to do with having different URLs returning the same (or very
similar) content.
The difference is that under niceurl, all URLs are considered
individual pages whereas under the normal scheme it might be considered
as a single page with multiple parameters. I believe Google has problems
indexing the matter whereas if you use the former and different
parameters yield the same page you will end up penalized.
I would suggest you simply ensure that different parameters always
result in different content and use HTTP redirects in case different
parameters yield the same content. Google will only penalize you if you
don't HTTP redirect and pretend these are different pages.
Just my 2 cents...

its pretty easy to create an encoder that will process regular url

Just thought I would share my recent experience using urls of the form:
/action/param_name1/param_value1/param_name2/param_value2
I used this form in a website of mine to great success UNTIL november when
Google started penalising any site that contains "duplicate content".
If the parameters passed to the page do not result in a "significantly
different" resulting page then google will assume that you have duplicate
pages on your site and will penalise you.
In November and December my site traffic dropped to 25% almost overnight
after their "Jagger" update. After changing my URL's back to the more
conventional form:
/action?param_name1=param_value2¶m_name2=param_value2
My traffic has returned to normal.
Lesson learned: don't assume you are smarter than Google to gain more
traffic. Stick to statndard URL schemes.
