Status of GET and querystrings in CodeIgniter?

[eluser]pbreit[/eluser]
I know anything that can be done with a querystring can be done without a querystring. That's not the point. But frequently, one does not have control over the other party. PayPal is a good example and there are many more. Enabling querystrings in CI is sub-optimal because it changes up all the URLs, it doesn't just allow for querystrings when needed.

This should not even be debatable. Any framework that wants to be taken seriously needs to fully support one of the most basic aspects of HTTP. CodeIgniter is a very fine framework but this is a glaring ommission. And I'm not the only one to feel this way.

This is the worst search URL I have ever seen:

This would simply be unacceptable for most web sites.
