Attachment: testcase

composer make a "2. kanji encoding by iso-2022-jp."
2. kanji encoding by iso-2022-jp in a element.
<a href="mailto:[e-mail]?Subject=%1B%24B4A%3Bz%24N7oL%3E">mail</a>
click a mail link, open Thunderbird, Subject is garbage.

If encoding by utf-8, does not become garbage.

This is likely to be a dupe. For now, I'm taking it.

Should we hook at JS code? If so, I think that we need to change here.
http://lxr.mozilla.org/mozilla/source/editor/ui/dialogs/content/EdLinkProps.js#317
317 function onAccept()

But I think that we may have same issue somewhere. Are there some better idea?

And I think that if we support URL encoding for editing, we should support URL
decoding at loading this dialog.

Maybe, this is important and difficult problem.
Should we always escape the non-ASCII characters to UTF-8 on CGI params? (i.e.,
after '?'.)
