Remove deprecated URL params parsing
Is this what you had in mind @catwell?
Should this be considered a breaking change? That might affect what our next version number is.
Besides stopping to document this as a feature we should probably document the removal too.
@alerque Yes, I had no idea it would be so impacting. It might be considered a breaking change but I would be surprised if people relied on this behavior. Tools typically implement the newer behavior e.g.:
$ trurl -g "{path"} "ftp://root:[email protected]/pub/virus.exe;type=i"
/pub/virus.exe;type=i
And by the way trurl which is a good reference considers empty paths to be /.
$ trurl -g "{path"} "https://foo.bar?foo=bar"
/
Also just for reference, the RFC that standardized params was 1995 and the RFC that obsoleted it with no mention of params was 2005.
I'm not too worried about dropping it without much ado, but we should still be careful. This library is used a lot of places and I want to keep the friction of updating to a minimum.
