The '&' and '%26' are not equivalent as well as the '=' and '%3D'.

I know I could easily just type the queries correctly in the URL, but I'm
giving a training where I'd like to show how the queries generated in our
application can be tested and it would be great to be able to use the
/admin screen or have a good reason why we can't.

The admin screen is made for doing a quick query against the default field with the settings defined in the default search handler. To that end, it assumes that all entered characters should be part of the search string, so it encodes them accordingly.

On my version, which is 3.5.0, the main screen of the admin interface has a "Full Interface" link that adds "form.jsp" to the URL and gives a bunch more options. The defType option is not there, but Query Type is. Depending on how you have your Solr configured, you may be able to use that instead.
