... WTF kind of sense does that make!

http://www.thisisatest.com/a/long/path/filename.html?x=1&y=2

Should parse to:

Protocol: HTTP
Host: www.thisisatest.com
Path: /a/long/path/
File: filename.html
Query: ?x=1&y=2

Not:

Path: /a/long/path/filename.html
File: /a/long/path/filename.html?x=1&y=2

WTF is wrong with these people?
