Ah, very plausible! Why didn't I think about that...
But the PS example:

>> http://www.testurl.com/cgi/something.php%3Fcss=something.css%26amp%3Bsomethingelse=17
== http://www.testurl.com/cgi/something.php?css=something.css&amp%3Bsomethingelse=17

is still annoying. Why isn't %3B turned into a semicolon when the other two entities 
transformed? Does console care for me and want me to avoid the confusion I just had?

Thanks for clearing it up, anyway.
