Comment (by schlessera):

 > One option would be to run array_filter() on any array items in the
 query string, but doing so also means moving away from standard PHP URL
 parsing quirks.

 Going with "standard PHP URL parsing quirks" also seems wrong to me,
 though, as the URL should be parsed in a reliable way, no matter the
 language the server is written in. The code should implement whatever is
 the expected behavior from the URL alone, even if it differs from standard
 PHP behavior.
