Description Udo Rader 2008-01-31 11:58:37 UTC 
if a mail say contains a link with parameters, the '&' characters are html escaped when using the context menu->"copy link location" on the link.

eg. the link is mangled 

from http://example.com?foo=17&bar=9

to http://example.com?foo&bar=9

and thus becomes unuseable
