[GitHub] [couchdb] ricellis edited a comment on issue #3236: Non-standard API behaviour for reserved characters in database names

   I think this is a duplicate of https://github.com/apache/couchdb/issues/2235
   
   CouchDB's non-spec compliant handling of `+` characters in path segments of URLs is a long standing issue (note that #2235 was dervied from a JIRA originally opened in 2010) that irks all client side code following standard URL encoding practices.
   
   I'd love to see this resolved so the API aligned with standards, but the problems of compatibility with existing code that relies on the current behaviour of `+` in the path definitely shouldn't be underestimated.
