Nope. As I just learnt from this list it _is_ valid to specify a query
string using &amp; as delimiter - it will be resolved by the browser the
same way as it is when it gets displayed.

Actually this is the only way to create W3C-compliant query strings.

Just check with the W3C HTML Validator: http://validator.w3.org/
