[quote author="WanWizard" date="1282915298"]The only proper solution is that Ellislabs provides support for query strings in the core code.
All other solutions here are workarounds and hacks, that work for one person, and breaks it for another.[/quote]
I agree. I do not see a valid reason why one should be begging for fundamental web functionality in a web development framework. The senior codeigniter members defending EllisLab's stance saying it's for security reasons do not help the situation.
Something as fundamental $_GET should be available by default. The fact that Ellislab does not use $_GET does not mean that other developers should blindly abide by their decisions. If the developer writes proper code, then using $_GET should not create a security issue.
Codeigniter boasts that they do not get in the way of users' coding; How do they term this? In my opinion, this is getting in the way of programming. If they believe it's all for security, they should simply provide the means by which the application can be made "secure", not force it to be "secure".
I think that explanatin is bull.... I believe they are simply imposing their programming practices on the community.
