Actually I'm saying that it is just the way CI is structured. CI basic setting is that you use segments. In case you want to use query strings it is also based on a certain structure, c=controller&m=method. Things are set in a frame when using a framework, hence the name... In case you don't want this, there is always the option to make it yourself. I'm just going about it in a different way but with exactly the same result!
Code:
// rebuild and clean the $_GET
parse_str($_SERVER['QUERY_STRING'], $_GET);
// now it uses the same cleaning as sanitize_globals!
$this->input->_clean_input_data($_GET);
And of course I won't be placing this randomly in my code. I just won't extend my input library when I can place only 2 lines of code somewhere else. Probably if I already extended the input library I would go with something similar to your solution but in most cases your solution will be bloated.
