[Bug 256931] Re: z2.switch_on disturbes other parameter passing

[Simone Deponti]

This is not a S&D bug. However, testing from trunk reveals that Five
seems to have fixed that, atleast in plone 3.3

Bug description:
In some cases, passing parameters to a url that invokes z2.switch_on, does not work because z2.switch_on changes the request. This is actually a very common occurrence, on sites using the channelsubscribe portlet.

As an example: changing workflow states from folder_contents does not work when the portlet is displayed because the 'paths' argument is turned into unicode and unrestrictedTraverse does not accept unicode.

We need some way to return the request to it's original state after we've done our form-business. I am told Fives formlib has this same issue, so maybe we can come up with a general fix?

I had a customer that needed a quick fix so I did a try: except: on it.
But it seems that make_query only wants strings, so a better quick fix
would then be to encode the unicode strings as utf-8? Instead of
upgrading Five that is..
