Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/floccusaddon/floccus/issues/222

Software versions

Browser: Firefox 64
Nextcloud: 15.0.0
Nextcloud Bookmarks app: 0.15.1
Floccus: 3.2.3
Floccus sync method: nextcloud-folders

Steps to reproduce

We are using OTRS. A lot of the users are bookmarking OTRS links to tickets. A direct link to a ticket does look like this: https://my.otrs.dom/index.pl?Action=AgentTicketZoom;TicketID=707128

Bookmark a URL with a ; character. It doesn't matter if this bookmark is created within NextCloud Bookmarks or within your browser.
Let Floccus sync that Bookmark.
Try to open the bookmark within your browser.
The ; character (and all special characters after this one) will be transformed to something like '%3B'.

Expected outcome

The URL shouldn't be transformed by Floccer. Otherwise the links ware mostly likely broken.

Actual outcome

It seems like that Floccer has problems with syncing URLs with ';' in it. With that being said, adding a URL with a ';' character to NextCloud Bookmarks from the webinterface and opening the URL from the webinterface works fine. Using the AddOn FreedomMarks with Firefox also works as expected. However, FreedomMarks does not actually sync the bookmarks rather than accessing them directly through the NextCloud API.

Thank you for the feedback! This definitely appears to be a bug. I have opened an issue with the library used for URL normalization in floccus and will report back here.
