The problem here, for the & case at least, is that the perl selection
extension has several other built-in patterns, one of which is:
# shell-like argument quoting, basically always matches
qr{\G [\ \t|&;<>()]* (
(?:
[^\\"'\ \t|&;<>()]+
| \\.
| " (?: [^\\"]+ | \\. )* "
| ' [^']* '
)+
)}x
These are added to the list derived from cutchars and so your & always
gets caught.
I think what you want in this instance is to disable the perl extension.
You can do this with:
URxvt.perl-ext-common:default,-selection
If you want some of the other features, like URL selection, but not the
offending one, I'm afraid the only option right now is to make a custom
version of the extension and cut out the shell-quoting bit. If disabling
it works well enough for you feel free to close this bug.
