> When the user prefs contain values with German umlaute (like ä, ü, ö) they aren't decoded correctly in the HttpGadgetContext.getUserPrefs() method. 
> It seems that it is assumed (later in the JavaScript that is returned to the browser)  that these user prefs are encoded with encodeURIComponent() and the sample container encodes the user prefs with encodeURIComponent in the method gadgets.IfrGadget.prototype.getUserPrefsParams(). I tried to simply change the .getUserPrefsParams() method to use escape() but then I get JavaScript errors later on when I call var prefs = new gadgets.Prefs(); in the gadget.
> In my opinion it would be enough to encode those user prefs with escape().
