Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Go to google.com 2. Add a keyword search for google.com by right clicking 3. Type the keyword and " a+" and press enter. Actual Results: url: http://www.google.co.uk/search?hl=en&source=hp&q=a+&meta=&aq=f&oq= and results for "a" Expected Results: url: http://www.google.co.uk/search?hl=en&source=hp&q=a%2B&meta=&aq=f&oq= and results for "a+" I'm not sure that this applies to special chars other than +, & and = seem to get encoded for example.
