Now that I take a second look at it, I think it's possible that the browser
is the one adding the "/" after the "http://www.example.com". Have you tried
this with different browsers and different versions?

It is actually the server doing this, not the browser.
Both Apache's HTTPD server, and Tomcat, when you send them a URL like
"http://www.foo.com" will issue a redirect to "http://www.foo.com/". In
both cases, this ends up requesting the welcome file -- but the
interesting thing is *why* this is done. It's to ensure that relative
URLs in the welcome file page are resolved correctly to resources in the
same directory.
FWIW, I'm sure that "http://www.example.com/?user=0123456" is a
perfectly valid URL. It just happens to have a zero-length path element.
