Solr-J: automatic url-escaping gives invalid uri exception. How to workaround?

[Britske <gb...@gmail.com>]

I have a custom requesthandler which does some very basic dynamic parameter
substitution. 
dynamic params are params which are enclosed in braces ({}). 

So this means i can do something like this: 
q={order}...

where {order} is substituted by the name of an existing order-column. 
Now this all works well when i supply such a query directly as un url in
firefox / IE. 

However when i supply a query through SOLR-J I get an "invalid URI"
exception as SOLR-J automatically URLEncodes the braces and then passes this
onto Apache-HttpClient, which chokes on the URLEncoded URI. 

Is there any way around passing things as braces trough SOLR-J such that the
resulting URL is correctly interprested by HttpClient?

I replaced { and } by (( resp. )). Not ideal (I like braces...) but it
suffices for now. 
Still, if someone knows a general solution to the UrlEscaping-issue with
Solr-J i'd love to hear it.

Cheers,
