Two reasons,
1 the names of the functions and what they do are confusing and without 
something in HTML_AJAX will get it wrong (we have so far)
2 I don't trust that en/decodeURIComponent do everything we need them 
too on every browser

Name wise if you have a better idea post here and will get it updated.  
Taking time to pick clear method names is always a good thing.
