My suggestion wasn't for CGI originately... I put useful url's straight
in plaintext notification emails and without url_encode it has to be
enclosed within <> (and there's a bug in thunderbird with them btw).

Although I don't mind separating the "cgi viewable" feature with the
"core processing" feature, but urlencode would stay in the core one.
