 Cool, thanks for the detail.

 So, if you upload a file named `Eric%20Lewis.jpg` the URL would end up as
 `siteurl.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/Eric%2520Lewis.jpg`.

 Should we be URL-unencoding before naming the file on the server, so if I
 upload `Eric%20Lewis.jpg`, the file on the server would be
 `/path/to/uploads/dir/Eric Lewis.jpg` and the URL `siteurl.com/wp-
 content/uploads/2014/05/Eric%20Lewis.jpg`?
