nickva opened a new issue #825: Allow urlencoded '+' characters in _scheduler/jobs/<job_id> field
URL: https://github.com/apache/couchdb/issues/825
 
 
   Since replication IDs could have `+` characters in them (they might look like `2abc+create_target+continuous` for example), the ID has to be URL encoded when specified as part of a URI. Otherwise '+' signs will be decoded into spaces and on the server side it will look like `2abc create_target continuous`. 
   
   As a convenience it is possible to unambiguously accept both versions, and thus make URL encoding on the client optional. In other words, client could specify `2abc%2Bcreate_target%2Bcontinuous` or or `2abc+create_target+continuous`. On the server the former will be decoded as `2abc+create_target+continuous` and the latter - `2abc create_target continuous`. Then spaces can be turned into `+`-s since a replication ID generated by server will never have space characters in it.
