Comment (by anonymous):

 One general use case is for debugging. My specific use case is an attempt
 to make a myth client for Yahoo! widgets, which would run natively on TVs
 that support them. The only real option for client requests in that API is
 HTTP GET requests.

 Since the API supports GET requests, and it's only a matter of reshuffling
 two lines of code so that escaping happens after the GET is broken into
 separate fields, instead of before, I don't see the harm.
