We can investigate and fix that separately. The url encoding for (with and without *) and that corner case problem for a particular problem should be fixed (which @mqliang found out is due to min/max value being null and server throwing NPE). Let's make sure to add tests for with and without encoded query string -- everything after columns= can be encoded. I think in this PR, controller is re-encoding.
