1270662 - Supersearch drops special characters from URL

Status: VERIFIED FIXED

(Socorro :: Webapp, task)

Description

[u279076]

If I architect a supersearch query containing special characters (say appnotes containing 'WGL+') I get back the expected results. However if I do the same by entering the URL manually into the location bar or by clicking a link from another page Socorro drops the '+' and returns no results.

Steps to reproduce:
1) Load https://crash-stats.mozilla.com/search/?product=Firefox&_dont_run=1
2) Add a new line: app notes contains WGL+
3) Click search
> Some results are returned
> Notice the URL is https://crash-stats.mozilla.com/search/?product=Firefox&app_notes=~WGL%2B...
4) Load https://crash-stats.mozilla.com/search/?product=Firefox&app_notes=~WGL%2B
> No results are returned
> Notice the appnotes field is searching for WGL instead of WGL+, even though the URL parameter is correct

I depend on this for my MetricsGraphics charts where clicking a data-point shows the related crash reports.
