 In [20372]:
 {{{
 #!CommitTicketReference repository="" revision="20372"
 HTTP: Don't force cookie values to be urlencoded because it breaks usage
 of cookies in some scenarios like the LiveJournal Importer. Instead add a
 filter for a plugin to use if it really wants to have the cookie mangled.
 Fixes #19922 props pw201, dllh and kurtpayne.
